10th Croydon - Group News
Admin / 5th March 2021 /What can I say about 2020, what a year. I'm pleased to say that finally it's possible to restart the Group news page. Just a couple of snippets for now.... BUT WATCH THIS SPACE FOR REGULAR UPDATES.
10th Croydon Scout Group - Recent Events
Whilst we have been back in lockdown a lot has been going on behind the scenes. The District team decided to close the 16th Croydon Scout Group and we have taken all the children and two of their leaders into our group. Most of them have been on our Zoom meetings and have been earning their badges. We are all looking forward to meeting up when we get back to face to face meetings.
We have a fantastic bunch of volunteers who are currently painting and decorating our Scout Head Quarters, and have put in a dishwasher and washing machine, both of which will help with the additional cleaning caused by Covid. We also have an enthusiastic team headed up by Repair Ronin doing other essential repairs so that when we go back to face to face meetings everything is spick and span. We will put up some photos soon,
As you enter our H.Q there is a small open plan hallway, which is the home for several essential notices. Previously it's proved difficult to ever make these look professional and keep them neat and tidy. Obviously we did not want these to "Let Down" the newly refurbished H.Q. so we looked around to see what was available and were lucky enough to discover Discount Displays, who have been kind enough to donate some of their professional display frames, again photos soon once we have them fitted.
There will also be new signage for the billboard and a freshening up of the outside of the hall. And we have been able to get a new FREE banner for the outside of the hall and many thanks to Banner Buzz for providing it, I would suggest other charities needing sinage check this business out. They can do any custom Banner Printing, displays, graphics signs with your logo and flags for special events etc., And if you are a charity (at least at the moment) THEY WILL DO IT FREE, So get in touch with them now at www.bannerbuzz.co.uk !!!
BREAKING NEWS
We have been given the go ahead by Scout Association to start face to face meetings from 29th March outdoors. For the time being, we will still have the same (reduced) ratio of 15 children and 5 adults/helpers. So anyone who can help out will most welcome and extra help will allow us to run more meetings.
