Appleby Scouts

The last month has been manic with four camps.  The girls-only Woodpecker Patrol came 2nd out of 3,500 patrols in the Challenge 100 competition last year and in May went on their prize weekend staying in Baden-Powell House in London.  Highlights included a visit to Downing Street, the Billy Elliott musical and the dress exhibition in the Victoria and Albert Museum. 

The Scouts attended the District camp at Willesley cooking all meals on wood fires and enjoying a huge range of activities.  The Beavers also attended a camp at Willesley and the Cubs went to the County camp at the Oaks in Charnwood.

We would like to thank Andrew Bridgen for arranging the donation of a 20ft storage container for our equipment. 

We are really busy during the next month with the Forest Festival in Measham, katakana races at Conkers Waterside as well as archery and air rifle competitions at Willesley, more details and loads of photos on www.applebyscouts.co.uk

Appleby Magna Parish Council

The Parish Council has donated £400 to the Sir John Moore Foundation Youth Activities Program. The donation will contribute towards the cost of the newly purchased Wii game machine and digital movie camera.

Unfortunately, dog fouling is a problem on the Recreation Ground. The Parish Council is obtaining quotations for further warning signs. The new dog fouling laws state ‘dog owners must pick up their dog’s waste and dispose of it responsibly’. The District Council will issue offenders with a Fixed Penalty Notice, with the offender having to pay a fine. If you wish to report an irresponsible dog owner please contact the Street Environment Officer on 01530 454545.

Later this year the Parish Council intend to improve drainage on the Recreation Ground by installing further land drains.

The next meetings of the Parish Council will be held on Thursday 7th August and Thursday 4th September at 7.30pm in the Sir John Moore Heritage Centre. All members of the public are encouraged to attend the meetings and will be made most welcome
