The Scouts are back on Friday 3rd September, and Beavers and Cubs are back on Monday 6th September &#8211; and a brand new term of scouting begins, jam packed with fun and adventures!

		<title>Taking a break for summer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All of our Sections have now broken up for the summer holidays, as our Leaders all need a break and to prepare for the next year &#8211; after all, we&#8217;re all volunteers and give up our free time to be Leaders! We are also planning to do some work around the Scout Hut to improve the facilities. 
But we&#8217;ll be back in just a few short weeks and straight back into providing Scouting for all of our Beavers, Cubs, and Scouts.

		<title>Fundraising at Lees Wood Fun Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As usual, volunteers from the group went to Lees Wood to raise money for the group and so that we can continue to provide everyday adventures to our young people. We ran a number of games and sold bric-a-brac from our stall, and raised a fantastic £200 which we will put to very good use.

		<title>Tesco voucher collection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This year, we are collecting &#8220;Tesco for Schools and Clubs&#8221; vouchers as well as Sainsbury&#8217;s Active Kids vouchers. 
If you shop in Tesco&#8217;s, or know someone who does, you can bring in the Schools and Clubs vouchers and we can use them to help us improve the quality of Scouting that we provide.
This is the first year that we have collected these vouchers &#8211; let&#8217;s see how well we can do!

		<title>Night Owls Scout competition</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend, three Scouts from the 9th North Watford took part in the Watford North District Night Owls competition. This is an annual night-time competition and involves navigation, hiking, and Scouting skills knowledge.
The three Scouts which took part were new Scouts and took part as a training team (with the help of some Explorer Scouts). Out of the fourteen teams which took part in the competition, the number of points they earned placed them fifth &#8211; a great result!

		<description><![CDATA[Each year, Sainsbury&#8217;s gives away Active Kids vouchers, and Scout groups like us can use them to get equipment.
If you shop in Sainsbury’s, or know someone who does, you can bring in the Active Kids vouchers and we can use them to help us improve the quality of Scouting that we provide. We have done very well the last two years, but let&#8217;s see if this year can be a record breaker!
