Explorers cycle across Britain
During the holidays a group of our Explorer Scouts have
been cycling across Britain from Whitehaven to Wallsend. The
challenge goes towards their Chief Scouts Award. See more on
the
Get Bracknell website.
Sainsbury's Active Kids
Our group is collecting the Sainsbury's active kids
vouchers this year. We are joining in across the whole group
from Beavers to Scouts and combining the vouchers we
collect. We hope that you will support us by bringing in
your vouchers - you get 1 for every £10 that you spend in
Sainsbury's and they are available in store until 4 June.
Keep your eyes open
As part of the Scouting centenary celebrations the Royal
Mint are producing some special
50p coins with the Scout
logo on them. There won't be that many about so you'll need
to check your change carefully. If you find one then bring
it in to show us.
Fund raising the easy way
2nd Bracknell's membership of the "buy.at" network
has earned the group over £240 so far. We earn commission on things you buy online if you go
through our online shop at
http://buy.at/2ndbracknell.
For more information please visit our
shopping page.
    
    
Don't forget to see if there are any special voucher codes
that you can use when you are shopping online. See
our shopping page for more
information.
Barry's bus
Barry Smith was Akela at 2nd Bracknell for over 30
years. You can see our
tribute
to him online. When he died he left the group some money. We
have decided that we would use this money to buy a minibus.
Barry's programme was always full of trips out with small
groups to the seaside and museums so we think he'd approve.
If our group isn't already using
it we are happy to hire our minibus to other local Scout or
Guide groups. For more information please complete our
enquiry form.
Thanks to around 75% of the group that have registered their
Subs payments for Gift Aid we claimed £1146 in 2007. That's
the equivalent of 2 Christmas Fairs, 5 sponsored walks
or 10 jumble sales. It's easy money for us so if you haven't
registered for Gift Aid - or would like to check whether
you have or not, please see the Gift Aid e-note or contact our
Treasurer.
Join Us
We are always
pleased
to receive offers of adult support - whether
on a regular or occasional basis. If you would like to help
please contact your leaders or see our "Join
Us" page. You can get involved at whatever level
you want - from one night a term to becoming a uniformed
leader and helping every week. We also have vacancies behind
the scenes on our Group Executive Committee.
Getting
in touch
We've made it easier for you to remember the e-mail
addresses of the leaders. We hope that the
2ndbracknell.co.uk web address is straightforward and easy
to remember. You can e-mail the leaders @
2ndbracknell.co.uk rather than having to remember their
complicated addresses. If you can't remember the correct
address you can go to our Contact
us page and send us a message via our
enquiry form.
Blue 2nd Bracknell
Group T-Shirts may be worn as uniform (with your scarf).
They cost £6 and are available
from your leaders.
