FUNDRAISING

The fundraising committee did a collection on the Fishbourne- Portsmouth Wightlink route. Several Beavers and their Mums helped and one Cub. The Captain and 1^st Mate invited them to see the bridge.

We had some expert steering from the junior participants, a little wavy at times, but generally a wonderful time was had by all our members

APPRENTICE DRIVERS FOR WIGHTLINK

As well as having fun, our group prides itself on providing a rounded scouting experience for all its members. At present we are fundraising for a pioneering hut which will provide us with an equipment store, meeting room and also a work area , enabling the children to learn further basic scouting skills and life skills.
