Commissioner's Corner - 'Sup Suffolk - Nov-17
Hello Suffolk! Well, the clocks have gone back, the pumpkins have been carved and the autumn evenings are creeping into winter. As November greets us, our young people are of course getting excited about Bonfire night. This fabulous time of year gives us as scout leaders so many opportunities to teach our young members about personal safety and measured risk. This link from the Scout Association offers a fabulous programme opportunity about how to stay safe during this special time of year Fire Safety Badge Support. I know that there will be many fabulous bonfire nights taking place around Suffolk Scouting venues. I hope you all have a safe yet wonderful evening of colour, fun and excitement.
The autumn term has been very busy for Suffolk and many fabulous programme activities have taken place. The Explorer Belt 2018 team undertook a practice expedition, in preparation for their adventure to Poland and the South Africa Explorer Belt contingent presented their journey to an audience of parents and an assessing panel. It was so wonderful having the opportunity to listen to their independent adventures and how it has moulded them as young people.
Bury St Edmunds and Stowmarket Cubs had a visit to Legoland Windsor for an autumn treat, whilst 1st Honington (RAF) took part in a Halloween themed evening, in which the Cubs enjoyed apple bobbing and took part in a pumpkin carving competition. There were some truly awesome designs, but I particularly liked this one by Judy Brooks.County News Nov-Dec now available
