Rama's Roundup - Summer 2018
It has been great to be able to continue to meet Scouts, Explorers and Leaders over the last few months with visits to Troops in Ipswich and supporting a small group of Explorers to organise a two day Passport Expedition. Thank you to the Scout Leaders from Wolsey for welcoming me to their District Meeting in March and especially to Deben District for inviting me to attend your St Georges Day Parade.
I was also privileged to visit Rendlesham Scouts at Hallowtree to present their first Gold Chief Scouts Award (with more scouts almost there).
The Ringtail Review - Apr/Jul 2018
Spring has certainly sprung and after a spot of “spring cleaning” Pig in Camp Blanket has journeyed up the A14 to Hallowtree and is situated at the top building. He is keeping an eye out as you arrive in the car park. Please say ‘Hello’ when you pass him. If you would like him to attend your event please could you let me know.
The Easter holiday arrived and went in a flash. I hope you all had a “cracking” time whilst enjoying the break.
The Ipswich Gang Show celebrated in style as it was their 80th year, I felt proud to be a member of the cast. Well done to everyone on stage, off stage and all around for their help in making it such a success. It was great to see many fellow Scouters enjoying the experience including Jenny Mullan, Ex CC and the DCs from Deben, Orwell and Wolsey at the show. Steve Leach (Wolsey) said “That it was very good and always exceeds his expectations, It’s great to see so many people on stage enjoying it!”. I was also surprised to see Peter and Janet Jarvis who travelled from Lowestoft who thought it was just fantastic and commented that “I make an excellent 80 year old!”
