Despite the
fact that Beech Hill ISB Scout Group have only been meeting this term
since the end of Ramadan, they definitely haven't been standing still.
On their first night back, the group started both a Beaver Colony and a
Scout Troop, with some assistance from District and County Scouters, the
Beech Hill Leaders successfully launched both new sections with a full
programme of activities and games.
Four weeks
later, on the 22nd October, Group Scout Leader faraz Mir (pictured above
with the badges he was about to present) invested all 27 new members,
which of course included the new section leaders and assistants as well
as the new youth members.
At 8pm, the
Beavers, Cubs & Scouts all gathered together in the Scout Hall with
their parents and siblings. The 8 Beaver Scouts were invested first
during which everyone said their Beaver Scout Promise, the Beavers were
given their group scarves, badges and Beaver Scout Log Books. Then it
was the turn of the 5 Cub Scouts, who together said their Law & Promise,
after which they were presented with their group scarves, badges and Cub
Scout Power Packs.
It was then
the Scouts turn, all 7 Scouts came to the front of the hall to say their
Law & Promise. Afterwards they were presented with their group scarves
and badges. And finally, the new Leaders were invested, all 7 Leaders
stood in front of the entire group and said their Promise.
It was then
time for a quick photo call before the young members were given a quick
snack and a drink before they went home. Pictured below, the growing
