NSRA YPS Air Rifle Course
Sunday, November 16th, 2008Please see the attached letter detailing next spring’s National Smallbore Rifle Association’s Youth Proficiency Scheme which teaches Scouts all about the safe use of rifles (and pistols if you’re lucky).
3rd Hampton Hill excel at target shooting and this course will give your Scout or newly joined cub all they need to know about this sport. All students will then be eligible for direct entry into the tournaments we compete in throughout the year, including the Nationals where we did so well this autumn. Places fill fast so get your application in now.
(In the unlikely event that we can’t secure places at the sites during these weeks there is a slight chance that we might have to adjust the dates - but we’re pretty confident that they should be OK)
The Scouts enjoyed their annual Fires and Fireworks evening last Friday. Quite a few sausages and marshmallows were ‘lightly grilled’ over open fires :). Well done to the Scouts for getting their fires going quickly despite the slightly damp conditions.
Don’t forget that the New Troop Starts this Tuesday 11th November 2008! Meeting time is 7pm - 9pm. Don’t be late.
Scouts, if you’d like to take part in this event, which we are past winners of, please see the attached 


A quick reminder that we have invited the Hampton Hill & Fulwell Safer Neighbourhoods police team to join us at Scouts this coming Friday. As well as having the chance to get to meet them, the Police Officers will also spend some time discussing issues such as stop and search as well as personal safety.
