Well done Cole - our first Bronze & Silver Chief Scout's Award holder

Well done Cole! He is the first individual in our Group to gain both the Chief Scout's Bronze Award (in the Beavers) and now gone on to complete the Silver Award with the Cubs. A terrific achievement and one you should be proud of Cole!

His badge and certificate was presented by the local author, Helen Watts.

 

Helen lives locally and her first novel "One day in Oradour" tells the story of events in a small French village during the second World War. Although the book is aimed at a slightly older age group than our Cubs, her next one in September is closer to their age and Helen has agreed to come back, tell us about it and do some work around the Bookreader and Hobbies badge (lots of Cubs bring books in).

 









Four weeks to go...

We are four weeks away today from our Activity weekend at the PGL Centre at Liddington in Wiltshire. Three adults are travelling there with our party of 15, and the Cubs will be doing all sorts of activities over the weekend.

This activity is scheduled for Sunday morning!:



Another Chief Scout Silver Award!

Well done to Louis who has become the fifth Cub in the Pack to complete all his Challenge Awards and be presented with this badge.

He received the certificate at this week's Pack meeting, but he got his badge a couple of days previously when he was presented it at the St George's Day Parade service, in front of the District, by Tony Guy who was representing the County Commissioner.

St George's Day Parade in Tanworth-in-Arden.

This year, the West Warwickshire District Parade was held in Tanworth-in-Arden, hosted by 1st Tanworth Scout Group. Fortunately the weather on Sunday behaved and stayed dry! The parade was its usual colourful sight and our Cubs were well led by Louis, escorted by Cole and George:

 

 

 

Another trip for Mouse

Mouse has been on his travels again - this time with Felix to Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise in France.

 

 

It looks cold Felix!



Welcome to Ollie

Welcome to Ollie, who has joined us from the Group's Beaver Colony. Ollie's first meeting was last week, when we got the fires going, the sausages cooking and the marshmallows toasting!

Viking Ship Fires!

We took last week's boats down to the canal last night to give them a traditional Viking send off. It was also a chance to show that they could each be safe at the canal side as part of their Personal Safety badge.

 





Thank you to the two Dads who joined us - Malcolm Stoddart and Phil Smith.

We finished up at the railway station to go through the second safety code as part of the Personal Safety badge work.
