SUMMARY:Sunday Duty Patrol
DESCRIPTION:We all have a responsibility to keep The Den clean & tidy\, and to ensure that the boats are bailed regularly\, particularly during the winter months. On the third Sunday of each month the Scouts and Explorers take it in turns (by Patrol / Division) to be the Sunday Duty Patrol and keep our HQ and equipment running properly. Please make a note of the day your patrol is on duty – it is only once a year and makes a big difference in keeping our HQ running well. \n\n\n\nSunday Duty Patrol starts at 10:30 and lasts for about 1½ hours.  Where there is a Church Parade on the same day\, duty patrol will start on completion. \n\n\n\nWear old clothes that you can clean in. Please let your PL/DL and section leader know if you can’t attend. \n\n\n\n2026 Rota\n\n\n\nMonthDatePatrolsDuty OfficerJanuary25*Penguins and Dolphins (*week later than usual)RenownFebruary15Seagulls and SharksSolebayMarch15Explorer UnitEndeavourApril19Gannets and OttersRenownMay17Curlews and StingraysSolebayJune21DauntlessDauntlessJuly19Seals and TurtlesRenownAugust–No Duty Patrol–September20Merlins and PiranhasSolebayOctober18Explorer UnitExplorersNovember15Puffins and BeaversRenownDecember13*Stormy Petts and Whales (*week earlier than usual)Solebay
