Edition - April 2007
March was another busy month with District challenge hike and cross country
competitions, gang show celebrations and reviews, first aid course for
leaders, a trip to Uganda to ‘formalize’ the ‘Street Kids’ project, planning
meetings for camps and the launch of a new Explorer Unit based on the gang
show and theatre. All this was all in addition to the continuing weekly
section meetings and Young Leaders training session.
The Easter holidays gave the opportunity for the annual Explorer Expedition, this year to South Wales, and the Patrol Leader training camp in the New Forest.
Sunday 22nd April is the District St. George’s Day celebration when all sections meet in Rosbery Park and parade to St. Joseph’s church.
Coming activities

what is probably one of the biggest and best events of the year for our
youngsters is now well in hand.
The Group Family Camp is in June at Boidier Hurst camp site

A great Scout Summer Camp is being planned in Essex with our
Swedish friends and we are hoping to spend a day at the World Jamboree. The
