Dear All

May I wish you all a very Happy New Year.

There are changes this year to the way I communicate to you all. We shall be using our web pages on the Church web site. This will have a copy of this letter, forms for downloading, and up to date news items. It will also have a link both to our Company Calendar, and the Battalion Activities Calendar. These are on Google Calendars and I hope you will find this useful.

Email can still be used but I know some of you still do not have access to email, but all our young people will be able to access the web, and most adults.

Uniform: Thank you to the few who have given me their uniform sizes. I have ordered a selection of sizes.. The cost of the uniform is £12 and we shall be fitting them to bodies in the next week or two. All boys and girls will be expected to wear their uniforms to meetings, visits etc

Subscriptions: Thank you to all who paid termly last term. Fees are now payable on a termly basis, ie £15 in September, £10 in January, £10 in April. Weekly subs will not be payable of course. Please make cheques payable to 1st Dronfield BB Company. Our capitation fees alone this year were £650, Minibus insurance £300, Road Tax £200. £30 per boy approx. This  has to be paid whether you come every week or not. Please chat if this will cause hardship.

Consent form. Please collect and complete this as without consent your child will not be able to take part in any activities. This is very important, I will take some on Monday

Summer Camp: Our camp will this year be at Feldon Lodge near London. It will be 24th July- 31st July. Activities will include a day at the Natural History and Science museums and site seeing in London. A day at Windsor Castle, and a day at Whipsenade Zoo, plus archery, swimming, bowling, canoeing etc. The centre has 20 acres of grounds, totally secluded and safe as well as a 5-a-side court, sports hall and showers toilets etc. The cost this year will be around £130 but we are organising some fund raising events to offset the cost, for those who take part in fund raising. Current year 6s and above are eligible, but a £20 deposit is payable. Weekly payments will now be accepted. Please sign the enclosed consent.

Anamchara services: Every second Sunday of the month at 9.30am This service, is especially for members of BB and their parents and friends and forms part of badge work as well’

Torksey Junior Camp. 18th-20th June Cost around £35. For all members currently at Juniors School. Limited places so please sign the consent with £10 deposit asap. Help with staffing as last year greatly appreciated.

Please phone with any queries, and I hope this new system will save trees and money.Tony.

Dear All,

 

I have the following names for Torksey who have signed consent and I will have to confirm this with Battalion along with T shirt sizes by next week. There has been a big interest and virtually all places are taken. However we do have a waiting list for places unconfirmed by next week. Please check this list and let me know if it is correct, or if you wish to drop out or be added to the waiting list,

 

This Sunday is our Church Anniversary, when we shall have our Worship Band playing and is a Family Parade Service to which everyone is invited. 10.30 am at Church.

Tony.
