Spring term : Programme :
Weekend camp
Welcome
We are delighted to welcome Lorraine Clark to 2nd
Bracknell. She will be helping us out at Stags and has
chosen the jungle book name Lahini.
50th
birthday camp
As part of our 50 years celebration we will be taking the
whole group to camp at the end of July 2010. We have 34 Cubs
on the guest list, with 15 doing the mini-camp for the first
part of the week. There are also some 38 Scouts coming to
camp so it will be quite a crowd. We'll keep you posted as
camp approaches.
Gang Show: Tuesday 16 February
We still have a
number of tickets for our visit to the Gang Show at half term.
If your Cub and/or you and your family would like to join us,
please let Kali know the number of tickets you would like as
soon as possible. More details can be found at
http://www.2ndbracknell.co.uk/events/gangshow.doc. The show
has a website at
http://www.sebgangshow.org.uk.
This is an event that we try to attend every year and this year
we have several members of 2nd Bracknell in the cast and we are
looking forward to seeing them in action. It is a very enjoyable
and entertaining evening and if you do join us, I am sure that
you will not be disappointed.
Camping Skills – Weekend Camp 26 – 28 February (limited
places)
As many of you know, in 2nd Bracknell Cubs we like to
try and have at least one night away event each term and
this term is no exception! Our nights away event this year
is an indoor camp at Earleywood Campsite in Ascot from
Friday 26th February to Sunday 28th February. We will be
sleeping on the floor in the Scout Centre and we have a wide
range of activities planned. The
camp will start after tea on Friday evening (so you need to
have something to eat before you come!) and end on Sunday
afternoon. The cost of the camp will be £25, and includes
the accommodation, all meals from Saturday breakfast through
to Sunday lunch and all the activities. You can reserve your
place by emailing Baloo, but your reservation won’t be
confirmed until your leader has received a deposit of £10,
to secure your place.
We now have 24 Cubs on our guest list. If you are one of
them please complete and return a
health form. You may
also need the kit list and
joining instructions.
Group
T-Shirts
The Cub Uniform includes an optional
green polo shirt but we would prefer you to wear our blue
group T-shirt. New t-shirt stock is now available with sizes
up to age 12-13. Cub sized shirts cost £6 each
and are ideal for wear in the Summer Term instead of your
sweatshirt.
Fund raising the easy way
2nd Bracknell has joined the "buy.at" network which means
that we earn commission on things you buy online if you go
through our online shop at
http://buy.at/2ndbracknell. You'll find over 100
retailers there including M&S, HMV, play.com, Amazon, Thorntons, Expedia and Waterstones. You pay the
normal website price so you can raise money for us without
spending a penny extra.

Events

being a Cub Scout.
Scout Shop
If you need uniform then the Scout Shop is the place to
go. The Scout Shop page has more details and includes
a map showing how to get there.
e-notes
We try to provide electronic copies of our notes
when possible. We call them e-notes
and you'll find a list of the current ones on the
menu bar at the left of the page. All of these
notes are in Word format.
If you are
new to Cubs you may find our Welcome Guide useful. We also have some
frequently
asked questions such as what is the Law and Promise and a
chart to show where the badges go.
Badge Requirements
We don't publish the requirements for badges on our
site. To find the appropriate links to Scoutbase see the
"Badges & Awards" link at the left of each
page.
