2012 session booked for Sun 23rd Dec starting at 11:30am
Can you spare us a couple of hours or more to help us raise money for our Scout Group?
THANK YOU FOR VOLUNTEERING! - Hope to SEE YOU THERE ON FRIDAY. Please wear uniform if you have one –We need to be seen to be Scouts. Please can adults help too. Remember to pack frozen,and chilled foods separately. Crushable stuff near top of bags. Not too much weight in each bag –Double the bags if it might burst especially if it contains glass bottles!
Sainsburys have kindly allowed North Baddesley Scout Group to do a bag packing session at their Lordshill Supermarket as a Christmas Fundraiser on Friday 23rd December from 10am to 2pmf
This is the first time that we have been offered this superb opportunity for raising much needed funds. Our policy at North Baddesley Scouts is to run Scouting Activities at a price which makes them available to all and so also keep subscriptions low. We are fortunate in owning our own HQ and renting it out to reduce our overheads. However there are some projects we would like to undertake to redevelop and modernise some of the rooms to make them more useful to us and more attractive for rental. We need to raise around £15,000 to £20,000 to achieve this. This fundraising would be a good early step.
If you can spare us a couple of hours then please return the form below to me by Friday 16th December or email me on gsl@nbscouts.org.uk.
We are looking for up to a dozen pairs of young volunteers in beaver/cub/scout uniform who can help pack customers bags,carry them to vehicles and collect donations. Ideally each pair will be supported by an adult volunteer (Beavers would clearly need strong support but are still most welcome). Although this is a Friday lunchtime it is just before Christmas when children have broken up from school and many parents may also be available to help.
The most up to date details will be here on our website as we get closer to the date but the initial plan is to meet outside Sainsbury’s Lordshill,SO16 8HY at 10am (or by the checkouts if you are arriving later). We will issue further instructions beforehand about how to pack bags etc.
