3rd Upminster Wesley Beavers newsletter Feb. 2007
also downloadable in printable
form here
Please find detailed below lots of dates for your diary. There
are lots of additional activities since we are celebrating 100 years
of Scouting. Please can you let me know yes/no by 15th March at
the latest, to the events on 31 March and 15 July.
We will be meeting on those dates which say tbc - we are just finalising
the details.
Sainsbury's Active Kids Vouchers - we are collecting these as a
group of Beavers/Cub/Scouts at 3rd Upminster Colony. As it is the
Centenary year it would be great if we could buy some sports equipment
for all the boys to use. Please collect them and tell everyone you
know so that we can collect as many as possible.
Beaver Leaders - we desperately need more uniformed help to keep
the Colony running - if you would like to get involved please talk
to Helen, Karen or Paul -' many hands do make light work and would
ease the pressure on the few.' However small your help or contribution
it would be greatly appreciated.
Please remember to sign up for the parent rota
