Earlier today we recieved the sad news that Cherryl Thomas, who was Cub Leader and GSL at 1st Royton throughout the 90's and OO 's, and was also District Young Leader Leader for Crompton and Royton until 2014, passed away on Wednesday evening. Cherryl had been battling cancer for a while and was at home with her family when she passed.
Cherryl was was a big part of both 1st Royton and Crompton and Royton for well over 20 years. She was a passionate and fun loving Scouter who made a huge impact on the Iives of many in Scouting, both young people and adults. She will be missed by a great number of people. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones at this time.
If the Beaver Scouts cannot go on Christmas Sleepover
then let Christmas Sleepover go to the Beaver Scouts
What a fabulous weekend! a 40 strong Christmas Sleepover made up of Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, 1 Scout & a lot of siblings from 7th & 16th Oldham
What did we learn ......
Beaver Scouts will eat the chocolate puddings for Sunday's on-line game as a midnight snack,
Beaver Scouts will spread peanut butter & birdseed with a spoon, then lick the spoon,
Some mums can burn microwave popcorn
Beaver Scouts can stay awake REALLY late, even on home Sleepovers
Sleeping in a bedsheet igloo in the lounge makes for a very lazy Sunday morning
Well done everyone & thank you all for a fantastic weekend... it seems The Grinch cannot steal Sleepover after all.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
