Dear Scouts and Parents,
We have now booked the venue for this year’s Autumn Scout
Camp and progress is now being made on finalising the programme. The Kit List is attached and it is important for Scouts to have the correct equipment and gear for this year’s camp especially a roadworthy bike and cycling gear along with waterproofs and warm clothing.
This autumn we are staying nearer home and going to be at Ellis’s Hill Farm, Sindlesham Road, Arborfield. See attached for map for directions. Over the
years we have used this location for many Scout Camps however we have not been
in more recent years. It is
in the middle of the woods behind Barkham Manor and when there you feel like
you are along way from home. The
theme this year is ‘The Great Escape (Chicken Run)’.
The details are as follows:
Date: Friday
29th Oct – Sunday 31st October 2010
Venue: Ellis’s Hill Farm, Sindlesham Road, Arborfield, RG2 9JG
Activities: A
combination of all day mountain bike wide game with survival activities
Cost: £
55.00 per person *
Costs will not
include the transport to and from camp.
Arrival for camp will be 6pm on the Friday. Evening meal
will be provided
Scouts will need to be collected from camp at 2pm on the
Sunday.
Parents are invited to the closing ceremony at 1.30 and final flag break.
Can you please return the ‘Permission to Camp Form’ with a
cheque for £55 by the 15th
October (The cost includes
a £10.00 non-refundable deposit). Cheques made payable to 1st Finchampstead Scout Group.
