SCOUTS AND GUIDES SUPPORTERS GROUP:

Many thanks to those who attended the Easter Bingo night at the Scout Hut. We had a great evening and raised around £75 for the Groups to spend on equipment.

We're also looking to recruit a few more members to our 100 Club. This provides the backbone of our fundraising and for a £12 a year membership your number is entered into 4 quarterly draws with prizes of £ 100, £ 25 and £ 25. It's an easy way to support the Group with far better chances of winning than the Lottery! For further details please contact Liz Webb on 495143.

The Beavers, Cubs and Brownies are all currently thriving but are always open to new members in the age group 6 to 11. At their regular meetings, the children undertake a range of activities designed to help them learn and have fun at the same time.

Brownies meet on Monday evenings between 5:30pm and 7:00pm, Cubs on Tuesdays between 6:30pm and 8:00pm and Beavers on Thursdays at the Scout Hut between 6:00pm and 7:00pm. Come alomg to the Hut if you’re interested or contact Paul on 624623 for further information.

1st BARFORD BROWNIES:

After restarting 1st Barford Brownies in March 2007 we have had a very busy year. We began my making some fantastic grass seed potato heads. All the girls worked very hard to produce a crime awareness leaflet and to achieve their Crime Prevention Badge. Many thanks to Wendy Barlow for all her efforts to help achieve this.

We have decorated biscuits, had games nights and celebrated 11 new Brownies making their promise. We took the girls 10 Pin bowling and three Brownies moved onto Guides.

The summer holidays came and went and we celebrated 70 years of Brownies in Barford by inviting past members and people from the village to enjoy tea and cake with us. The event was recorded by the Courier Newspaper.

We made flower book marks and babies in bed biscuits.

On Bonfire night we sang songs around the camp fire with the help of Allyson Wise and made chocolate sparklers and ate hot dogs.

Finally the girls enjoyed a disco and buffet to celebrate the end of term and Christmas. Thanks to J B Sounds for providing the disco.

During the spring term the girls have achieved their Fire badge and on a person level, stargazer, road safety and friends to animals.

We tasted food from around the world and are collecting food labels and placing them onto a world map with home made flags. Pancake Day was great fun and we all enjoyed a day at the Spa Centre being entertained by the WAGS show.

We could always do with some extra help as a young leader or an adult unit helper so if there is anyone out there who would like to come and join in the fun please give me a ring.

We welcome girls aged between 7 and 10 to join and meet at the Scout Hut Wasperton Lane on a Monday evening 5:30 till 7 pm term time only.
