Firework Fun

Dear Parents,
Fireworks Evening – November 2nd 2011

On Wednesday 2nd November we will be having a Fireworks Evening at Ratlingate.  This will start at 6.30pm and finish at approximately 8.00pm.  This is a joint activity along with 18th Carlisle Scout Group.  Parents and other family members are welcome to stay too and join in the fun.

There will be a bonfire, fireworks and refreshments. The cost for this activity will be £2.00 per head. This will cover the cost of the fireworks, hot dog and a drink.

Please make sure that you come suitably dressed for the event and that you wear your necker.  Wellies are highly recommended as Ratlingate can get muddy during the winter months. A torch will also be useful.

Please can you let your section leader know if you are attending so that we can organise appropriate refreshments.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday 2nd November.

Reiver's District Swimming Gala 2011

Cubs and Scouts

This years Reivers District Swimming Gala will be held on Saturday 15th October at Penrith Swimming Pool. We ask that Cubs and Scouts turn up at 5.30pm ready for a 6.00pm start. All that they need to bring is their swimming gear, a drink (plastic bottles only), something (a t-shirt or towel) to wear on the poolside, £1 for their locker and loads of enthusiasm!

Heats for both Cubs and Scouts start at 6.00pm and the Gala will finish around 8.15pm. It's a great night so why not stay and support the teams.

A word of warning for those spectating - it gets very warm - so they'll be no need for the thermals. .

Let's look forward to another successful evening.
