Flag Day the Second - 23 Jan 2010

Just a quick thanks to everyone who helped on the Flag Day last Saturday. As you may know, a lot of our tents were rendered useless after the floods, so we needed to fund raise for new equipment. We made an almost identical amount to October's Flag Day, which was great.

Our next Activity is a Pizza Night in the Lough,this Saturday (30th) which should be a great craic, and possible County Activities for the future will be discussed, so it's important to go and give our opinions! Yvonne will text everyone with details. I'm not sure, but we might be having a meeting beforehand, but that's a guess. Again, Thanks to everyone who came to Flag Day.

See you on Saturday

Ice Skating, and First meeting of 2010




Hello everybody,
I hope you had a Happy New Year, and that Santa was good to everyone.
We went Ice Skating at 'Cork at Ice' and had our first meeting in the restaurant while having hot chocolate. (better than our Scout Hall Porch in the Mardyke) If anybody was not there, and is reading this, there were some important points raised at the meeting.

  • We have a Flag Day next week (Sat 23rd January). Ballincollig gave up their booking so we could fund raise for new equipment (All our tents were wrecked in the floods). Also, if you do not attend, you will not receive a discount on the Camp in April.
  • New Members need to seriously think about getting a uniform. Check the previous posts for more information.
  • Yvonne needs numbers for Camp urgently, so please email /text /ring /all of the above so she definitely knows you are/are not going to Wales.
  • If you have pictures or other things to contribute to the blog, please email spps4ventures@gmail.com

    See you all next Saturday.
