3rd Romsey Scout Troop - Murder in Romsey!

The Scouts were sleuths around Romsey on a warm June evening trying to find out who dunnit and with what implement!  For a while they were all missing in action - we may have lost them all!

No matter where we looked - no Scouts.  We went further down the route - still no Scouts.  Had they walked past us, better check - but no-one there!  Then we found the group who left last!  They were following the right track - but no sign of the 3 groups that left earlier in the evening........ the route was deserted!

Finally they all ended up on the correct route, with most of the questions answered and, whether it was luck, judgement or intellect is anyone's guess, they all got it right!

Making the grade
What a lovely evening!  The Mayor of Test Valley, Mrs Dorothy Baverstock, welcomed Beavers, Cubs & Scouts from Romsey District to a very special ceremony in the Town Hall.  Every youth member who has gained their Chief Scout Award for their section was presented with their certificate by Mrs Baverstock.  It was lovely to see 3rd represented by Jack, Rory, Toby, Lewie & Austin receiving the Beaver Chief Scout's Award Bronze and Scouts Jack, Kathleen & James for their Chief Scout's Award Gold.  It was fantastic to also see Kieran, an Explorer Scout who used to be a Scout at 3rd, gain his Chief Scout's Award Platinum and his Duke of Edinburgh Silver.  Well done to you all!

Simply the best!
Congratulations to Joe, Jack, Kathleen, Lara, James & Polly who attended the Hampshire Chief Scout's Gold Award presentation tonight at Thornden School.  It is a huge achievement and they have all worked really hard to get this award.  They have camped, cooked, hiked, tried new things, helped others and grown so much since they started at the Troop!  It was a very proud moment for family, friends (and the Scout Leader) to watch them being presented with their certificates by Jagz Bharth, Deputy UK Youth Commissioner.  And he summed it up - we are very proud of them, and they should be proud of themselves - however, it is the first step in what is hopefully a very long and fun filled journey!
