We are going out for our annual End of Year awards to the Ellora Restaurant on December 12th 7pm – 9pm. We will have a meal and then give out some awards – there’s also a fun quiz for members to have a go at with some prizes for the highest scorers. Don’t worry if you don’t like curry, there are alternatives available.
All members and parents / family are welcome to come along – but we need numbers as soon as possible. Read more
Please don’t forget we have the D of E information evening for everyone in year 9 and above.
Who is excluded from this?? No one!! Read more
Sorry for the delay in getting this to you, it’s not quite the end of term so this will be useful anyway – please click to see the program.
The program shows we are at CAG Towers, Bickers, tonight and we will try to get outside for part of the evening so please come with waterproofs and shoes that can go on the soft wet field. We won’t be doing anything with fires so no smoke smells this week and won’t be outside all night. Read more
Sorry for the late notice but next Wednesday, Nov 22nd, there will be an information evening for everyone in CAG in year 9 and above about D of E, how it works, why do it, expedition dates, acceptable activities i.e EVERYTHING you need to know if you are thinking about doing D of E or are already doing it. Read more
Sorry all – we’ve all been very busy recently and haven’t been able to get program finished and get some car washes done, but we’re past that busy period and can get back to getting things done again.
Tomorrow: we’re outside tomorrow with a series of team challenges and we’ll be starting our Cake Challenge for the term as well. Read more
Trip reminder:
This is our final trip of the year to Wales to do some mountain activities such as navigation and MAYBE we’ll get to see the summit of Cader Idris, weather permitting, but we’ll probably stay lower down.
We’re also taking a bike ride along the STUNNING Mawddach estuary into Barmouth, the popular seaside town located on the west coast of Snowdonia (where you go on holiday if you don’t work hard at school!). There is a long sandy beach and a pretty harbour but more importantly there is Knickerbockers – an amazing ice-cream parlour serving up a dizzying array of delicious ice cream and candy. Read more
We should have sent you the program for the term by now but it is taking some time to finish off – we’ll get it to you as soon as we can.
In the meantime, we are at CAG Towers in Bickers tomorrow. We will be outside on the field so please make sure to bring shoes that can get muddy (ish) and a jacket in case it is going to be cool. A head torch will be a great idea, but please make sure to have a name on it if you want it home again. Gloves will be useful, we’re getting the poles out.
Normal start time, 7pm, please remember to bring your permission forms if you didn’t bring them last week – membership fees are also due for all current members and need to be paid asap.
See you tomorrow!
