The Scouts will be selling glow sticks and sweets. A reminder that dogs and sparklers are not allowed.
We ask that a donation of at least £10 is made for a family of four. This is our biggest annual fundraiser which enables us to purchase new and replace old equipment as well as fund our weekly programmes for Beavers, Cubs and Scouts.
