A Happy and Active New Year to all members of 2nd Onchan.

Centenary Badges
These two badges should now be removed from Uniform as the Centenary of Scouting officially ended on the 31. December 2007. They can be sewn onto rucsacs, sleeping bags, etc.

Group Camp 2008
We still have a few places left on the Group Camp, which is open to Cubs, Scouts, Explorers and all Leaders. If you are interested in the camp, please ask for a leaflet.

Scout Hall Improvements
It is coming up to six years since the new hall was built and we are continuing to carry out some improvements to the Scout Hall. A new double bowl sink and new water heater has been fitted in the kitchen in the last couple of weeks. New ‘ball proof’ lighting is to be fitted in the main hall. The boys toilet is to be refurbished and the hall, kitchen, cloaks and toilet areas are all going to be decorated. All this work should be completed though the first half of 2008 and should cause minimum, if any disruption, to Section Meetings.

Hall for Hire
Don’t forget you can hire the Scout Hall for parties etc; at reasonable rates. Further details can be found on the Group Website.
