SUMMARY:Solebay PL & APL Training Camp
DESCRIPTION:In the run-up to summer camp\, this training weekend will give PLs and APLs the skills they need to look after their patrol at Summer Camp (even if you’re not going to summer camp\, it will be a fun weekend away with friends\, learning new skills). We’ll be refreshing on how to pitch the tents\, light fires and cook meals. As well as training we’ll be making use of the on-site activities\, and of course some games.

SUMMARY:Renewal of Promise - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Renewal of Promise parade has been postponed to a later date\, as Strand Wharf has been double booked by Leigh Town Council with the Shanty Festival. Details of the rescheduled event will be published when we have confirmed them. Sorry for the late notice\, we only found out on Wednesday evening. \n\n\n\nSunday Duty Patrol for Curlews and Stingrays is still on (1030-1200)\, and there is Open Boating for Scouts/Explorers from 13:45. \n\n\n\nRenewing our Scouting promises to Do Our Best for the upcoming year\, and commemorating those Scouters that are not longer with us. This year we will be holding the service on Strand Wharf\, in the heart of Old Leigh. \n\n\n\nMeet in the small car park on New Road\, opposite the Fishermen’s Chapel (by the bridge into Old Leigh) at 10:30 in full uniform\, then march to Strand Wharf where we will gather to renew our promises together as a Group\, then march back to The Den to finish at around 12:00. \n\n\n\nAll Beavers\, Cubs\, Sea Scouts & Explorers are expected to attend\, in full uniform – this is one of the few events we ask all members to be there for. Parents & friends are very welcome to watch the parade and service. \n\n\n\nAll are welcome to join us at The Den afterwards for tea & cake.

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\n2025 Rota\n\n\n\nMonthDatePatrolsDuty OfficerJanuary26*Penguins and Dolphins (*week later than usual)RenownFebruary16Seagulls and SharksSolebayMarch16Explorer UnitEndeavourApril27*Gannets and Otters (*week later than usual)RenownMay18Curlews and StingraysSolebayJune15DauntlessDauntlessJuly20Seals and TurtlesRenownAugust–No Duty Patrol–September21Merlins and PiranhasSolebayOctober19Explorer UnitExplorersNovember16Puffins and BeaversRenownDecember14*Stormy Petts and Whales (*week earlier than usual)Solebay

SUMMARY:Young Leader Training
DESCRIPTION:Monthly Young Leader training sessions open to all Explorer Scout Young Leaders within 3rdCB and across Southend West District on the second Tuesday of each month (unless advertised otherwise; not held in April or August). \n\n\n\nThe Explorer Scout Young Leaders’ Scheme is the training programme for Young Leaders. It contains 11 modules and four missions for them to work through whilst volunteering in their chosen section. Modules give Young Leaders the skills and knowledge to be successful in their role\, while missions allow them to put everything into practice with support. \n\n\n\nAs well as developing valuable life skills\, the scheme is an opportunity for Explorers to make a positive impact in their communities and to fulfil the service elements of many of the top awards in Scouts\, or their Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. Recognition of achievement is available along the way\, and on completion of the Scheme\, the Young Leader is awarded with an Explorer Scout Young Leader belt buckle.

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\n2025 Rota\n\n\n\nMonthDatePatrolsDuty OfficerJanuary26*Penguins and Dolphins (*week later than usual)RenownFebruary16Seagulls and SharksSolebayMarch16Explorer UnitEndeavourApril27*Gannets and Otters (*week later than usual)RenownMay18Curlews and StingraysSolebayJune15DauntlessDauntlessJuly20Seals and TurtlesRenownAugust–No Duty Patrol–September21Merlins and PiranhasSolebayOctober19Explorer UnitExplorersNovember16Puffins and BeaversRenownDecember14*Stormy Petts and Whales (*week earlier than usual)Solebay

SUMMARY:Open Sailing
DESCRIPTION:Open boating session at The Den for all Sea Scouts and Explorers. \n\n\n\nSessions for any Scout or Explorer to go on the water sailing or on our other boats. Sessions are always supervised by a suitable leader\, and no experience is necessary. There is no charge for participating in open boating\, just ensure you are down in time for the start time above. \n\n\n\nYou will need to bring suitable clothing to go afloat which you don’t mind getting wet (and you will get wet!). Footwear is required on the water – wet boots or old trainers are ideal\, flips flops and wellies are not appropriate. Buoyancy aids are mandatory for all activities on the water\, and will be supplied. You may also want to bring a packed lunch and drink\, or money for chips. \n\n\n\nAll water activities are dependant on weather and suitable leader cover\, so may be cancelled at short notice – check the Members Facebook Group for last minute changes.

SUMMARY:Derbyshire
DESCRIPTION:Our annual Easter Walking and Activity Week to Castleton in the Derbyshire Peak District will take place during the Easter holidays from 5 – 12 April\, open to all Scouts in Renown and Solebay Troops. \n\n\n\nWe have a varied programme including hill walking\, swimming and other activities such as cycling and low-level climbing\, as well as the opportunity to head into the local village and activities & games in the centre. We have exclusive use of the Rotary Centre in Castleton\, with several buildings including a purpose-build dormitory block with bunk bed accommodation in rooms of four and central heating. \n\n\n\nWalking groups are based on age and experience\, and are led by an experienced leader or instructor. For the older Scouts there will be the opportunity (weather permitting) to complete a two-day expedition challenge\, as part of the Chief Scout’s Award\, an experience that will leave some great memories. \n\n\n\nCost and How to Book\n\n\n\n\n\nThe week cost is £260\, which includes all transport\, activities\, accommodation\, and food and represents excellent value for money for a full week away. Numbers are limited to 36 Sea Scouts and will be allocated on a first come\, first served basis. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook your child’s place now at 3rdCB.org.uk/derbyshireBefore booking\, please check that your Scout wants to go and is available. \n\n\n\n\n\nA £50 non-refundable deposit is required on booking\, with the balance by 4 March. Invoices for the balance payment (if not paid in full when booking) will be sent out nearer the time through the Parent Portal. \n\n\n\nEquipment\n\n\n\nWalking boots (not DM’s) and decent waterproofs are essential for this trip\, and the Group has a number of good quality waterproofs and rucksacks that can be hired. There is a small hire charge of £5 per item to cover wear & tear and to help cover the cost of cleaning and replacing them. These borrowed items will be collected at the end of the week before we return home. \n\n\n\nPre-Trip Meeting\n\n\n\nWe hold a pre-trip meeting for parents and those going on the trip at The Den on Tuesday 4th March at 7.30pm. This will explain a bit more detail about clothing and kit requirements\, as well as the chance to discuss rooms. All those attending the trip should attend. Group equipment will be available to hire on this evening.
