Parkwood Bonfire Night

Written by David Simon | 03 November 2008

There will be a simple bonfire night celebration at Parkwood on Friday 7^th November, starting at 7.00 p.m.. The event, which should last for approximately 2 hours, has been organised by the Parkwood service crew to help raise funds to allow the bunkroom flooring to be replaced.

Anyone is welcome to attend, and there is a guy competition that will be judged at 7.45. Any beaver, cub, scout or explorer can bring along a guy, with a scouting theme, which will be put on the bonfire and burnt after the competition.

Tea, coffee and squash will be available for a small donation towards the flooring fund.
