Welcome to the 1st Chipping Sodbury Scout Group Website

New website will be launching next week. Sections Programmes for Thursday Scouts and Explorers will be available then with others to follow.

Nike Explorers Monday 6th - 8pm start. Parachute Drop. Bring boots, outdoor gear, torch.

New Website Coming Soon

Things have been very quiet here for the past few months. The reason for this is this website is going to be replaced with a new site in a few months time. This new site is taking up a lot of time so there will only be programme updates on the old site until the new site is ready. The new site will be a vast improvement on what we have at the moment with a lot more room for expansion for new features to be added over time. You can get a sneaky peak at the new site by looking at the two images below.

The new site will have a lot of new features and improvements the first set of which are:

• New re-designed template
• Better more flexible menus that make things easier to find
• System to allow leaders to submit articles for display on the website
• Site search function built in
• Easy to use print view and send link to page e-mail function for all pages
• New photo slide show tech. Including an updated Buckstone Camp Album, the Biblin's Camp Album and the content from this years Summer Camp in Dartmoor.
• All content from old site included and improved.

There will be more information to follow, for the time being here are a couple of preview images.

Cycling Camp - Tintern
Friday 23rd October - Sunday 25th October

Cycling camp this year was a very wet weekend but luckily for us it did stop for the cycle ride itself. We went to the Frost of Dean and did the family trail and then did some off-roading on the FODCA trail. On Saturday evening we had our Ginger Nut taste test (to settle an argument) which decided that the cheaper ones were better than the big brands. On the Sunday we did a bit more cycling around the site before packing up and heading home to the dry
