ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The Annual General Meeting of the Scout Group will be held at 4pm Saturday June 19th 2010 at Batchworth Sea Scouts Headquarters on Riverside Drive, Rickmansworth.

BATCHWORTH ACTIVITIES/SKILLS DAY 2010

On Saturday June 19th 2010, Batchworth Sea Scouts will hold an activities and skills day for all sections; Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers.

ALL members and their parents are invited to attend. The day will consist of parents being invited to join their children for the afternoon and the children will “TEACH” their parents (or at least participate with parents in) an activity or skill that they have learned at Batchworth Sea Scouts.  Parents will participate in the activity with their children, learning what goes on at Batchworth and hopefully having fun in the process.

All the activities will be performed in the area surrounding the HQ (e.g. in the car park or on the water). The afternoon will take the following format:

14:00 – Event start – meet at HQ

14:15 – Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers will split into separate groups to perform activities

15:45 – All parents and members back to HQ for tea and biscuits

16:00 – Bar-b-que for beavers, cubs, scouts, explorers

16:00 – AGM for parents

16:20 – Slide show of photos from the day in the HQ/Bar-B-Que, tea, etc

17:00 – Event end

We look forward to seeing you.
