Situations Vacant

At last weeks AGM, Group Chairman - Neil Young, posted an advert for volenteers to fill Situations Vacant within the group. These are serious roles, but roles which should provide fun for the volunteer and a sense of satisfaction which can only come from helping others. We have already had a fantastic response, although there are still many positions still to be filled so please have a look and if you can help us in any way, we’d love to hear from you.

If you would like to see this add in a higher resolution, please read on.

2009-06-20 - AGM & Fun Day

I expect an official report from the Chair or GSL on this event, but in the meantime……

The 5th Dartford Scout Group pulled it all together at today’s AGM. Not only did we showcase our new “ICE CLIMB”, but we also took time to encourage our guests, members and visitors to “have a go” and “Feel the value” that the 5th Dartford Scout Group has to offer the youth in our community.

2009-06-19 - Earley Troop Visit Fire Station

3 of the older Earley Troop scouts took time out to write to the fire service, as part of their community award, to request a tour of Dartford Fire Station for their troop. Alas our visit was cut short as the firemen were called out on a “shout” to rescue members of the public involved in a serious RTA, but rest assured - the 5th will be back to get our hands on the hoses and cutting equipment…..

Before the tour we also had the opertunity to invest two new Earley Troop members

Jamboree videos - 23rd May 09

Collins Pack Win District Tug-o-War - 25 May 09

Beating off challenges from not only the impressive Leigh Pack, but other pack from all over the district - The 5ths Collins Cub pack won the coveted Tug-o-War challenge shield. Well done Collins Pack and all who  took part.

District Jamboree - 22/25 May 2009

On Friday 22nd May, the leaders set off bright and early to Walton Firs campsite in Cobham to set up what was to be a very successful Jamboree camp indeed. The weather was the best we’d seen this year and our booty of awards was a fair haul too. The Fifth netted 1st place for both the over and under 14’s cardboard canoe race with a first and second place overall; and thanks to the Collins Cub Pack, the 5th also won the tug-o-war. Accreditation was also received with the 5th winning a third in the Cubs gun carriage race.

The overall camp atmosphere was bustling and just listening to the group at mealtimes it was clear the group were having a fab time. Thanks, as always, to the 5ths leadership team for “making it happen” for not only its own members, but also all the other scouts/cubs/beavers at the jamboree who enjoyed safe excitement on the canoing on the lake and on the pioneering zip-wire, which was built by the 5th’s Leaders.
