Bagpacking

Hemel District are organising bag packing at Tescos on 21st and 22nd December, to raise funds for the groups as well as giving young people (and leaders) the opportunity to fundraise for either Lochearnhead, World Jamboree, Capital Appeal or vouchers for use in the scout shop or towards district activities.

We raised over £2,000 doing bag packing in Tescos this time last year, and if we can repeat that success, Groups will be getting over £1,000 as a result…and the funds are split pro rata, based upon how many people are representing your group.

Please note the closing date for registering is 6th December.

Arrangements for 1st Apsley

Prior to this opportunity being offered to the district, 1st Apsley had arranged to spend the day at Sainsburys in Apsley on Sunday 22nd December.

We (HHDS) have arranged with Simon that the attached letter will go out to young people at 1st Apsley, with a note reminding them about the Sainsburys arrangement but encouraging them attend on the Saturday if they would like to fundraise even more for the group!
