Our Annual Review and AGM – A Sparkling Showcase for Scouting!
On Tuesday 1 October, we saw fantastic presentations about Scouting activities in our Region over the last year. North Berwick Beavers told us about their great year of fun in the most entertaining way! Midlothian Scouts showed us a great video of their expedition to Adelboden in Switzerland. Three Cramond Scouts (pictured) told us about their journey through Scouting and Sharkey, the Chief Commissioner for Scotland, presented them with their Chief Scout’s Gold Awards. Three members of the Region’s contingent to the World Scout Jamboree in North America entertained us with all their adventures. Finally, members of the Network expedition to Madagascar told us about the sterling community work they had achieved and the fun they had. Sharkey also presented top awards to four leaders, who had done so much for Scouting.
Our Regional AGM was then conducted most effectively, thanks to the excellent chairing by our President, Dick Allan. John Cannon, Regional Chair, gave a very positive speech about all the Regional Executive Committee’s achievements in 2018-19. It was a great evening and very well attended by about 80 people.
More details to come in the SES Scouts October newsletter.

Why not join us?
We’d love you to join us in Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers or Network, or to volunteer as an adult – giving whatever time you are comfortable with.
In Scouting we offer fun, friendship and adventure to young people in five sections according to age. There is an emphasis on outdoor activities and on skills for life throughout. The older sections take increasing responsibility for the running of their programme. Scouting is run by adult volunteers.
