The Cubs had a visitor from Oxfam so they could complete their Global Challenge badge. They learned about what Oxfam does and who they help and made a totem pole to illustrate all of Oxfam’s activities.

All the Cubs have now completed this badge – congratulations to them all.

It’s nice to be able to mention a couple of items of good news.

First of all, one of our Scouts has just completed all the requirements to gain his Chief Scouts Gold Award. This is our first Scout to gain this award since we restarted the Troop in March 2007. And to compliment this, we have another Scout who isn’t that far off gaining his as well. Very impressive!

Secondly, one of our old Scouts, who is now an Explorer and a Young Leader with our Group, has been chosen to be in the group of Scouts representing Staffordshire at the 2011 Jamboree in Sweden. This is a great honour and a really exciting adventure for the Scouts who will attend and we’re all really proud that this particular Scout is going!

All we can say is ‘watch out Sweden!’.
