For the first time the whole Group met for an evening!
The Beavers & Cubs arrived at the Dr Peter Centre 5.30pm to start climbing, thanks to the fab District climbing team they all made it up the wall and had a great time!
At 6.45pm
the Scouts arrived and Muntjac presented the Chief Scout's Bronze Award
to Toby & Rory from the Beaver Colony, the Akela presented Lucy &
Lily with their Chief Scout's Silver Award. Unfortunately Amelia was
unwell so unable to attend to receive her award in front of the Group.
We hope she feels better soon!
Then
we welcomed Steph, Fundraising Officer, from Marwell Wildlife. She
came to present each Lodge, Six and Patrol with the certificates for the
sponsored animals they had chosen. Each section had held a sponsored
silence and had managed to raise £390 to sponsor endangered animals at
Marwell Wildlife. This meant that as a whole the Group had sponsored 13
animals at Marwell - hopefully if you visit this year you can keep an
eye out for our sponsored animals!
The animals sponsored were:
3rd Romsey Obuasi Beaver Colony - Owls - Zebra, Foxes - Penguin, Adders - Snow Leopard and the Colony a Meercat
3rd Romsey Kumasi Cub Pack - Yellow Six - Giraffe, Blue Six - Penguin, Red Six - Pygmy Hippo and the Pack an Amur Leopard
3rd
Romsey Ashanti Scout Troop - Eagles - Tiger, Kestrels - Penguin,
Falcons - Meercat, Hawks - Giraffe and the Troop a Snow Leopard
This is a fantastic achievement and it was lovely to have such a great evening for our first evening together as a Group.
Finally,
we gathered together all the Cubs & Scouts for a photo who gained
their Green Blue Peter Badge in Autumn - they worked very hard the last
two summers pulling himalayan balsam from streams in the New Forest.
Catherine, New Forest Native Plants Officer, of the Hampshire & IOW
Trust is looking forward to their help again this year!
Scout Report
Tonight
we went to the Dr Peter Centre to do climbing. We found out which
animals we had adopted at Marwell with the money from our sponsored
silence. We then split into two grouops. One group did climbing,
which was great fun, the other group did invitations for the PPP for
their parents. Then after a while we swapped over. It was a great
evening.
