With memories of the Christmas and New Year holidays rapidly fading, and New Year Resolutions one-by-one packing their bags and heading out of the door (well, for some of us!), it’s time to get some dates in the diary for the next few months or so. Further details will follow in respect of all these events.

• The St George’s Day Parade will take place on Sunday, 27 April;
• The May Fair will be on Saturday, 10 May. It’s not too early to be giving some thought to possible donations to the Tombola; such as bottles, boxes of chocolate, gifts etc. For those of you whose New Year Resolutions are still in residence, we would be happy to help keep you on the “straight and narrow” by taking any items in those categories that you still have left over from Christmas, and that may be sitting there providing unfair temptation!!;
• There will be a Water Activity Weekend for the Scouts on the weekend of the 6/8 June. This will be held at Thames Young Mariners, in Ham. Places will be limited, as Chief will only be able to take 10 Scouts. Further details will be circulated in March;
• The Family Camp will take place at Walton Firs on the weekend of 11/13 July. Further information and booking details will be circulated at the end of February.

All the very best for the New Year.
