Ah – that lovely warm dry summer we had. Well it might have been at some time at camp. Just to remind you of those glorious summer days, Goldfinch troop are hosting a report back for the camp, for both troops on Thursday 9th October.

Even though we have not stopped aching yet from Group Camp, planning is already in progress for our 2008 Summer Cub Camp and we need your enthusiasm and companyt o make this another memorable Finchampstead Event.

Planning is advancing for our 2008 Summer Camp and we need your company and enthusiasm to make this another memorable Finch venture after a great Summer Camp in 2007.

This Summer we are heading in a westerly direction to Tintern, on the Wye Valley in South Wales. Basic details at the moment are as
follows:

Nancy Savage, our former Group Scout Leader and retiring Cub Scout Leader for Badgers Pack, invited all members of the Group to a Water Activities Evening at the Waterside Centre on the banks of the River Thames tonight.

Beavers and Leaders, Cubs and Scouts, all had a splashing time on the river, not many left dry.

I have, somewhat belatedly, added pictures from Group Camp to the picture database.

Group Camp was held over the May Bank Holiday at Cricket Camp, Bursledon and was the best attended camp we have ever run.

Pictures can be seen by clicking on the image below.
