Fitness Challenge

Fitness Challenge

We have a challenge aimed at Cubs, but no reason why the Scouts couldn’t join in too.

The challenge will run for two weeks and during that time you need to improve your results.

You can download the form Cub Scout Fitness Challange (PDF) or Cub Scout Fitness Challange (Word) but if you don’t have a printer, no problem, you can write everything down on paper and send a picture.

The downloaded chart has links you can click to find out how to complete each challenge.

If you think it’s too easy, or too hard, the targets can be adjusted, but please check with a leader first.

Everyone who completes the challenge will get a badge, or Scouts a woggle.

Nearly forgot, please feel free to post pictures of your child doing the challange on our Facebook Group.

Any questions, just ask a leader.

 

Movie Night

1st Marown Movie Night

End of term Movie Night

At the beginning of the Autumn term, we asked the sixers to give us a list of the activities they wanted the leaders to organise, one of which was a Movie Night (complete with popcorn and drinks!), So this week, that is exactly what we are doing.

The night will start at our normal time of 6:30, but will end a little later at 8:30.

The venue will be at Suchi’s house in Crosby, but if you don’t know where that is, please contact one of the leaders.

The night promises to be a great fun-filled experience just before Christmas, and we are looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Our thanks go out to Suchci and his family for organising this.

Suchi has prepared lots of snacks, so probably best to skip tea!

Hop Tu Naa Night

Halloween

1st Marown Cub Scouts

Next week’s meeting will be Hop-Tu-Naa themed, so we will devote the night to:

Fancy Dress – it would be great if your child can come in fancy dress! (Optional)

Halloween themed games

Pumpkin Carving (can any parents help us with this please?)

Ducking Apples – please send an alternative if your child doesn’t like apples

The following week will be half term, so no meeting, but please make a note that Sunday 8th November is Remembrance Sunday and the Cubs will lay a wreath at Marown Church Memorial – details, time etc. at our meeting on 6th November.

On 13th November, we visit the Peel Swimming Pool to work on the Swimmer Badge, and to pick our team for the Supersplash on Saturday 14th, at Ramsey Pool.

Can I suggest you arrange car sharing between you so that not everybody needs to take their car.

Wet n Wild

1st Marown Wet n Wild Slide

Programme 21.08.2020

This week we are going ‘Wet n Wild’ for the last of our Summer Activity nights.

The meeting will be at Braddan Park at the same location as the grass sledging was held.

Cubs and Scouts should bring a washing up liquid bottle, or water pistol /super soaker and come dressed to get wet.

We will be supplying either burgers or hot dogs and juice, but if any children have special dietary requirements, they can bring their own food/crisps etc.

The evening will start at 6:30 and will go ahead regardless of weather, we will finish when everyone has had enough sliding/squirting, or no later than 8:00pm – whichever comes first.

There will be a gazebo for changing, so we suggest they bring a change of clothing.

There will be an opportunity for the Scouts to finish their ‘Survival Skills’ Badge on Friday/Saturday 4/5th September at MYC. The Scouts will plan their own menu and cook from scratch, light fires, build a shelter and sleep overnight in it, with Bernie and Paul staying nearby to supervise.

More info to follow, but can we ask that the Scouts use their WhatsApp Group to plan their menu, and arrange who is buying what please.

All the leaders hope the Cubs and Scouts have enjoyed the activities provided over the past 12 months, and are looking forward to bringing another year of fun and engaging programmes.
