Friends of 6th Redcar Scout Group

The 6th Redcar Scout HQ burned down on Tuesday 1st August 2006. Many hundreds of people have been involved in the Group in the 50 years of its existance. This blog is to keep you all up to date on activities since then. Please pass on to friends and colleagues - anyone who can help rebuild this fine Group's HQ.

Lots of interest!

Evening all!

Lots of offers to help. The parent of an-ex member of the Group is organising a Ceilidh in the Redcar Bowl on Friday 1st December. Not sure of ticket prices yet, but it will include dancing to the 'Cleveland Bays', pie and peas and licenced bar till 11pm. We have had offers of great raffle prizes from local businesses. Come along, enjoy yourself and benefit the fundraising without realising it! More info soon, but we need you and your friends there!

Over £200 donated so far, and we still haven't heard from the bank about the account details! Also given an interview to the East Cleveland Advertiser who are keen to help fundraising. We now have a definite need to fundraise, regardless of the insurance company's decision. They will not pay for the completion of the pallisade fence around the property. The fence is essential before we start work on the new Hut. The railway side, part of the rugby field side and the side backing onto the Laburnum Road houses need fencing. No ideas on prices yet, but it won't be cheap! Anyone know a friendly fencer........?
