Parbrook Cub Scouts: part of 1st Billingshurst Scout Group

We meet on a Tuesday night from 6.30pm to 8pm



    Welcome to the Autumn Term
    Programme : Reply slip : Stedham

    Next Cubs: Tuesday 7 September. Duty six: Red
    Cubs is back on Tuesday. We'll be catching up with what you did on holiday as well as hearing from those who went on our Summer Camp to Downe. Keego has a challenge this term to introduce some new games so keep an eye out for them. We also hope to be welcoming some new members.

    Stedham - pirates wanted
    We're having a pirate weekend at Stedham in September and more information may be found on the Stedham page. We'll be sending out paperwork towards the end of the holidays so if you haven't already confirmed your place by paying your deposit please let Akela know that you are interested in coming. We currently have 8 Cubs on the guest list.

    Showtime
    Every two years the group puts on its production called "Showtime". The next performance will be in February 2011 and auditions will take place in September. Cubs are invited to attend on Monday 13 September from 7pm. Please see the Showtime letter for more information and a contact e-mail address.

    Big band evening
    As a fund raiser for our hut refurbishment fund (which plans to equip the hall with new toilet facilities) the group has organised an evening with the Ron Green Big Band evening on 11 September. For more information please see the Big Band poster.

    Jamboree fundraising
    In 2011 the next World Jamboree will take place in Sweden and a Scout from 1st Billingshurst is attending. Better than that, Kyle used to be a Parbrook Cub and so we are doing what we can to support him with his fundraising. We'll also be wearing the UK Jamboree badge from next term. For more about the fundraising events and the Jamboree itself please see our Jamboree page.

    Sainsbury's Active Kids
    We've now closed our collection for Sainsbury's vouchers and sent off our order. Our final total was 2143 and we expect our order to arrive in October. Thank you to everybody that collected vouchers for us.

    100 Club
    The group is operating a "100 Club" to raise funds for the refurbishment work on the toilets. The first draw will be in September but they need names now. There are 10 draws in a year, each with a monthly prize of £10. If you'd like to be in the club please let us know by returning the reply slip with your £10 payment.
    Note that money raised this way is for the group whereas our normal "painless fundraising" through buy.at etc goes direct into our pack funds.

    Online shopping
    By clicking through to your shopping site from www.buy.at/parbrook we get commission on your purchases. Our total raised this way has now reached over £660, with more than £175 raised in 2010 so far. Not bad when it is money for nothing. Now you can see where we have been raising our money.
    It doesn't cost you more so please try and remember to click through. We have new merchants taking us to over 100 shops in our scheme. They include Ikea, Waterstones, HMV, Amazon, CD-wow, play.com, e-bay, Mothercare, Game and Marks & Spencer (not food). You can also earn money when you book your holiday with sites like Haven, Butlins, Expedia, Hotels.com, Laterooms and Hertz. Check out our top offers and this week's newsletter.


    If you register your Subs payment for Gift Aid then we can claim back the tax - so your Subs go further. It's easy money for us so if you haven't registered for Gift Aid please complete the Gift Aid e-note and hand it to your leaders.
