Fellowship News

Southern 50 entries are looking good, but there is still time to enter for this year’s event on 11th February 2012.  New changes mean greater flexibility with team members.  Each team must now comprise of between 3 – 5 participants.

We have chosen a brand new school for the 2012 event which we have never used before, which should give us plenty of space.  Although we cannot disclose the location, we can say that the venue is close to a good rail link, so that will help teams who may wish to use public transport.

It’s easy to enter via the online booking system on www.scouts-gln-southern50.org.ukJust click into “S50 Challenge” and “How to Enter”.

Please let me know if you are an Explorer Scout Leader and would like anybody from the organising team to come along one evening and give a talk about the event to your young people.

Any questions to secretary@scouts-gln-southern50.org.uk
