July 12th, 2009 posted by RichJust a quick note to all members of 3HH to wish you all a fab Summer.
As the Section meetings draw to a close for the summer break and we prepare for scout summer camp I am already reflecting and looking back on a great year for the Group! We have all done and achieved so much already this year. Lots of Nights Away, lots of badges and much fun had by all. Do take a look at all the previous posts and pictures to see what a great time we have had so far in 2009.
I want to say a very Big Thanks to all the Leadership Teams and the Group Executive for all their hard work and to all the Young People for making 3HH such a fun place to be.
Wishing you all a very happy and enjoyable summer. May the sun shine down on you all wherever you may be and whatever you are doing this summer.
Kindest regards,
Rich M
Group Scout Leader
Beaver “Pirate” Summer Sleepover

July 8th, 2009 posted by Simon
As some forewarning, we’re aiming to run a joint event with the 7th Hampton Scouts to earn our Expedition Challenge badge. The dates are Friday 30 October – Sunday 1 November 2009 Saturday 24 – Monday 26 October 2009 which falls at the end beginning of the October half term (please note that these dates now need to be confirmed – watch this space!).
The intention is to have the Scouts walk from the 3HH HQ to the designated camp site about 8 miles away on the Friday, spend the weekend honing their navigation skills, playing games and building / sleeping out in bivvy shelters, and rounding off the weekend with a return hike back to the 3HH HQ on the Sunday.
Should be good and more details in due course!…

NPL Water Rockets Competition
June 25th, 2009 posted by Paul
Well done to Chris, Kieran, Mimi and Will from Claws for their excellent performance at this year’s NPL Water Rocket Competition.
The team’s excellent design and build work resulted in a rocket that flew straight and true and got the Scout firing the launcher only a little wet on take off, well alright soaked! We hit the first zone with our first and third flights and a bullseye with the second one giving flight times of 17, 33 and 18 seconds. Full results and pictures will appear on the NPL website in due course.
The launcher after some years sterling service is now pretty much defunct and a hard time was had getting it through scrutineering this time. Ideally we’d like to take this to summer camp as an activity, so is there a parent out there who could build us a more robust replacement? Full instructions are available from a link on the above website so little or no design work would be needed and if it can’t be built for camp, having one (preferably two so both troops can compete) ready for next years event would be fantastic. Please talk to any of the leaders.
Twickeree Photos
June 22nd, 2009 posted by RichWow! What a busy weekend! Fantastic! Take a look at the photos to see all the great things that went on.
The ‘Sun’ God shone down on us and provided nearly perfect weather. 3HH were successful in winning the Trophy for the Beaver Scout Challenge – Wall Building and also the English Heritage Twickeree Trophy – awarded this year for the Best Tapestry – well done! A very big thanks to all the adults and young people that made this weekend so much fun and such a success! Brilliant!
Talon Scouts Go Rowing
June 15th, 2009 posted by SimonGetting out onto the water is fast becoming a real favourite for 3HH’s scouts.
We were delighted to once again join our good friends at the 14th Richmond Boat House for a wonderful evening’s rowing between Richmond and Twickenham. To see more of what we got up to please click here to check out the photos.
Unlike our last adventure out, the sun was shining and the tide reasonably gentle. And the scene was perfectly set for a few impromptu races!
Massive thanks again to Vic, Anna, Roy and Trevor for hosting our visit. We’re already looking forward to our next trip out…

May 28th, 2009 posted by Paul
Hi all, as ever our last night of Scouts in July will be the Great Parent Scout Cookout.
It’s one of my favourite Scout evenings and has nothing at all to do with the fact that I’m on the judging panel! This activity takes a while to plan and arrange your teams so here’s the information nice and early to allow you to do just that!
Any questions just ask.

ASL Talon Troop
Note to self, must remember, no lunch or dinner that day!
