Congratulations Mark!

CONGRATULATIONS to Mark Guy for receiving the Chief Scout’s Commendation for Good Service.

The Chief Scout’s Commendation for Good Service is given in respect of not less than 5 years good service, which stands out. It should be regarded as the Chief Scout’s recognition of the very real contribution made to the Association by the individual concerned.

Barnham Wins District talent Competition

At the District Centenary Camp in May, 1st Barnham won the Leaders’ Section of Camp’s Got Talent with their interpretation of Synchronised Swimming. The Scouts and Cubs were also adjudged to be the best entry in their section of the event. A fantastic evening was had by everyone, which was only slightly marred by untold millions of midges who chose that night to do whatever midges do. The picture below is the trophy which we won. Well done everybody!


Scouts Win Dragon Boating Again!

Sunday June 2nd 2013

For the second year running, 1st Barnham Scout Troop won the Youth Section of the Charity Dragon Boat Racing organised by the Rotary Club on Chichester canal and basin. Watched by a large crowd, our boat beat 2nd Bognor Sea Scouts in the final by the smallest of margins – half a Dragon’s head. Congratulations to all the participants for their stirling efforts and to Simon for organising everything.  We all look forward to retaining our title against all comers next year.

The 2 pictures below are of our boat just winning in the final and the winning crew posing after their victory. There are more pictures in the Gallery.
