WORLD SCOUT JAMBOREE SELECTION RESULTS

22^nd WORLD SCOUT JAMBOREE 2011

Congratulations to Matthew Ba, Matthew Bl, Jamie, James, Joe, Sarah and Lewis (Pendle District) Gavin, Matthew Bu, William, Jake, Dominic,  Andrew W (Burnley District) on being selected as members of the East Lancashire Contingent which will visit the 22^nd World Scout Jamboree in Sweden in 2011. All 17 young people from Burnley and Pendle faced fierce competition from the total of 65 Scouts and Explorer Scouts from East Lancashire for the 36 vacancies. Everyone did their best throughout the rigorous selection weekend at Whitehough and the successful Scouts can be justifiably proud of their achievements. It is regrettable, but understandable, that 4 young people from Burnley and Pendle were amongst the 29 Scouts who were not successful. We also Congratulate Sam Lacey (Pendle District) on being selected as one of the four Contingent Leaders!! We wish them success in all that they do. However, the Jamboree Experience starts now with the crucial task of fund-raising and I trust that everyone will give our young people the support they deserve.

THORNTHWAITE THANK YOU

Thank you to everyone who attended and supported the Joint District’s Halloween Weekend at Thornthwaite Hostel in October and also the Explorer Scout’s Weekend at Hebden Hey in November. It was very pleasing to see both leaders and young people working together in harmony in the true spirit of Scouting . Sadly, some Groups did not attend and their young people missed a brilliant weekend!
