Scouts can wear their tie dye nickers to scouts up to Christmas if they want. Please keep their woggles with their proper neck, just use a knot or elastic band for the tie dye.
The scouts will be making tye-dye neckers this week. If your scout wants to bring their own white shirt to tye dye that is fine (but not essential). The items needed to make the neckers is supplied by scouts.
Anything that the scouts come back with dye-died should be washed on its own for first few washes not to affect any other item of clothing.
Wide game this week at Primrose wood (see pictures for location). Pick up and drop off at the same place.
Drop off at 7:00 and pick up 8:30. This week will be none uniform and dress for the weather (if its wet or muddy boots are advised). Scouts can bring a torch if they want but need to look after it.

Remembrance Sunday parade – Please read!
REMEMBRANCE DAY PARADE, SUNDAY 14th NOVEMBER
A parade is being arranged this year.
Explorers, Scouts, Cubs and Beavers should turn up at Burton Square / lower section of Utkinton Road at 1010hrs. Please note that Utkinton Road will be closed off from Heatherways to High Street at 1000hrs in readiness for the parade.
The parade will set off at 1025hrs and proceed to St Helen’s Church where a short service will be held by the cenotaph. Once this outdoor service is completed, most Explorers, Scouts, Cubs andall Beavers will be free to return home. We are not sure at this stage if we need to present flags inside the church but, if so, we will ask for three of the older children from each section to attend. We will advise these arrangements separately to those concerned.
It is probably best to park in one of the village car parks and walk with your children to Utkinton Road. Parents may accompany the parade to the church and watch outside proceedings at the church. As the parade has not been done in this manner before it is difficult to predict timings, but I would guess the outside service will be over by 1110hrs latest.
Explorers, scouts, cubs and beavers should be dressed in smart, full uniform. Black school shoes, black/grey school trousers or skirts and a poppy should be worn. A small sum of money for the collection is advisable.
Attendance by Cubs, Scouts and Explorers is regarded as obligatory but if your son / daughter is unable to take part, for good reason, then please let the relevant section leader know.
