SUMMARY:Explorer Summer Camp
DESCRIPTION:Explorer Summer Camp 2026 will be in Cornwall\, camping near Lansallos on Cornwall’s beautiful south coast\, just a stones throw from the beach. \n\n\n\nIt’s a green field camp – back to basics\, with no facilities. The Explorers will camp in tents and cook for themselves on open fires. There will be a fun packed program for the week focussing on team building and lots of adventure. The site is only 4min walk from a secluded beach so we’ll be making great use of that too. \n\n\n\nThe price of this camp is £280\, which will include everything needed for the week. A £55 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your Explorer’s place. The balance will be paid in instalments of £75 in May\, June and July through the Parent Portal. \n\n\n\nPlanned activities include surfing lessons or coasteering\, as well as games and lots of activities throughout the week\, on and off the site. As always there’ll be an opportunity to head into the local town and a trip to Newquay so some spending money will be required. \n\n\n\nDue to the location of the camp and logistics of getting there numbers are limited to 33 Explorers\, available on a first come first serve basis. If you miss out on a space please use the waiting list so we can gauge interest. \n\n\n\nWe will depart the den at 0500 on the Friday 24 Jul and return the following Saturday 1 Aug by around 1600. The early departure time comes with a view of taking our time getting there and hopefully beating some traffic. \n\n\n\nA full kit list\, medical form\, and more details will be circulated nearer the time.

SUMMARY:EYC Cadet Week
DESCRIPTION:3rdCB are invited to enter Scouts/Explorers who aren’t already members of Essex Yacht Club to the Club’s annual Cadet Week – a week of racing\, fun & games\, and social activities based at EYC’s HQ “Wilton”\, and may borrow sailing dinghies from The Den to enter (single or double handed). It’s a really fun week both on and off the water\, and the sailing experience of Scouts who’ve entered previously has increased immeasurably. \n\n\n\nPlease note that this is not a Scouting activity\, one parent is required to be present at the Yacht Club during the day to help out with the event and be responsible for their child. Prior sailing experience is required for the use of 3rdCB boats: to the standard of RYA Stage 2 – the ability to rig\, launch & sail unsupervised is the minimum expectation\, but please talk to the the sailing instructors about it beforehand if in doubt. We’re not able to provide tuition during the week. \n\n\n\n3rdCB will be assisting with safety boat cover. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA separate cadet week registration form will be sent to be completed for EYC to confirm attendance once you’ve been accepted to borrow a boat.

SUMMARY:Remembrance Day Parade
DESCRIPTION:Each year the Group represents the Scouting and the youth of our city at Southend Cenotaph for the annual Service of Remembrance. All Sea Scouts and Explorers are expected to attend this service (one the only events a year we expect all members to attend)\, to pay our respects to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. \n\n\n\nWhen: Sun 8 Nov – 10:15 to 12:00.Where: Clifftown Parade\, by Prittlewell Square Gardens (SS1 1DW).Wear: Full uniform\, with poppy. Dark coat only if raining.Who: All Sea Scouts (Renown & Solebay Troops) and Explorer Sea Scouts. \n\n\n\nWe will meet on Clifftown Parade\, Southend\, by Prittlewell Square Gardens and the Queen Victoria Statue at 10:15. The service and parade will finish at approximately 12:00 back at the start. Parents and friends are very welcome to watch the parade and service. \n\n\n\nFull uniform is to be worn\, including a poppy that should be worn above the bow on the cap tally band (or on the left breast if you don’t yet have a cap). It is generally cold so please make sure that you have a good hot breakfast before coming and that you wear a few layers under your uniform jumper. Coats will only be worn if it rains. Those members with long hair should wear it fastened up in a bun with a hair net. If you are concerned about the weather\, bring a coat with you as they can be left in a leader’s car if not needed during the parade. If possible\, please make sure that your coat is black\, navy or a dark colour\, not bright colours. \n\n\n\nThis is an important day where we are in the public view and as the largest Sea Scout Groups in the county it is right that we make a good effort to attend and pay tribute to those who lost their lives for their Country during the two World Wars and other conflicts. If you cannot make it\, please let your section leader know. A good smart turnout would be appreciated both by me and the Veterans who attend the Service.
