Good afternoon Everyone,

I hope this post finds you all well and safe. With previous posts that have gone out to you all, you will be aware that tomorrow is St George’s Day. (Patron Saint of Scouting) It would be nice to see all members of our group, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers and Leaders, in uniform tomorrow evening, for the 8pm Thank you to our NHS and all key workers.

My suggestion is that everyone makes their Scout sign at 7.55pm, think of your Scout promise & group, whilst a family member takes a photo. Please upload to the groups Facebook page or Email to me. By doing this, we have marked St George’s Day in some way. We will be unable to renew our promises this year, as we normally would. We would like as many photos as possible, so that we can make a group display of the photos on our return to our headquarters, when we can safely return to scouting.

Please send any photos or upload any evidence of badge work that has been achieved whilst in lock down. It is there for your child to take part in, should they wish to do so.

We are exploring other avenues to keep you all in touch with the 18th’s scouting family. In fact, we as a leadership team will discussing this at our virtual meeting this evening.

REMEMBER. Thursday 23rd April, 7.55pm, full uniform, Scout sign, Scout Promise, Photo. Then outside to Clap. Keep staying safe everyone. #
