OSR Scout troop have another qualified Scout leader. Congratulations to George Phelps on achieving his Wood Badge and becoming a member of 1st Gilwell Park. Lots of time and effort has gone into juggling University and Scouting but it’s a pleasure to have you with us as a qualified leader.

Remembrance Day Parade today on The Green in Stoke Gifford was very well attended by 1st Stoke Gifford Scout Group. Excellent turnout on a chilly but dry day. Thank You all for attending.

Tonight St. Michael’s school put on a fantastic fireworks display which was put to music for the 1000+ people braving the cold. The event was supported by 1st Stoke Gifford Scout Group providing hot food (burgers and hotdogs) for everyone and there were a lot of hungry people out there! Great job all those that spent the afternoon setting up then all the cooking and serving, finally clearing away. Hopefully we provided a great service and made some funds for the group.

Tonight whilst the troop were split again it was the turn of our second group to attend The Escape Rooms in Bristol. The scouts had a great time pitting their wits and trying to get out of a locked room Blackbeard’s revenge. Just to confirm that NO Scouts were harmed during the making of this production!
