This Thursday (25th Feburary): Uniformed Talk
Either a very interesting talk from Mountain Rescue or a talk about Camp America. TBC on evening, but whatever it turns out to be it WILL be a FULL UNIFORM NIGHT! If you don't have an Explorer shirt; wear your Scout shirt; if you don't have one of those; dress smartly. Meet at 1930!

Following Thursday (4th March): TBC
An interesting Unit Activity is currently being planned. See back here for more details at a later time.

New Facebook Page & Scout Shop Website

Three posts in three days! How lucky are you!?

Two things to keep you updated on. Firstly, I have added a logo that links to the scout shop website - an online store for buying uniforms, neckers, badges and all your scouting supplies! Here's a message from them:
As you may know, we launched our new website last year that not only has
the full range of Scout Association uniforms and resources, but also enable leaders to log in and buy badges.
The scout shop is an integral part of Scouting in the city of Sheffield and we are luckier than most to say we still have an actual shop operating in Trippet Lane!

Secondly, I have set up a Facebook 'page' - it's a bit like a user profile but for an organisation. Facebook users can 'become a fan' of the Unit and our news fees, status updates, photos and videos and stuff will appear in their news feeds just like it does for their friends' updates. It's not to replace the group we have, it's in addition to it. There will be events added to the page which will contin details of what's going on at the Unit and Facebook users in the Unit who are fans of the page will be invited to them and will be able to talk about them and share pictures and videos!

The brand new page: facebook.com/pages/Woodseats-Venture-Unit/...
