Dear Explorers,
As discussed previously, your Executive Committee have planned a camp over the Hut on the 15th to 17th February 2013.
We will be working on a number of maintenance items over the weekend including clearing all the old wood (making a big fire…) and decorating the office which is to become the Explorer Units room.
The cost for the weekend will be £15 which should cover all food for the weekend.
Please email for more details, or if you’ve misplaced the letter.
Thanks
