GILT CROSS presented to Scouts

Last summer, five scouts (three of which are now Ventures) were involved in an incident at Green Crag near Buttermere, Cumberland.

Since the incident, four of the boys have been awarded Scouting's third highest award for gallantry, THE GILT CROSS. It was presented to them at a special presentation at the Lord Mayor's Mansion House.(Click here for the full story)

Recruitment

When Green Crag VSU was formed, we knew that we needed more Venture Scouts in order to keep the unit going, so we are now starting a recruiting campaign to try and entice new members to the unit.

We are also hoping to recruit a new leader or two who want to lead the Ventures in acheiving their D of E Awards, and the Venture and Queen Scouts Awards.

If you would like to join the unit, or feel that you would like to join the ranks of those 'in charge', then E-mail us. We're waiting to hear from you.
