RAF Leuchars on Sat 10th September

Please see bellow Ross' info for RAF Leuchars....


Hi folks,


As you know you have paid and booked a place for the Scouts/Explorers visit to RAF Leuchars on Sat 10th September.

Meeting Place/Time: 7:20am in Glasgow Queen Street Station
Dress: Casual, but please have waterproofs - it is a long day of being outdoors. You must wear your neckie.
Travel: We will be travelling by train to Dundee, then onto Leuchars. It's a short walk then to the airshow.
Money: Those who have paid in advance will get an allowance to buy their lunch, but you should bring extra because drinks and snacks are expensive
Pickup: We hope to be back in Glasgow Queen Street Station about 6pm, but Scouts and Explorers will call their parents when we are 1/2 hour away on the train.


Any questions, please don't hesitate to give me a call on 07733 265 310


Many thanks,


Ross Vernal,

This Friday....

Hi guys

As we talked about last week we will be doing a bit of climbing and
maybe a little basketball.

Climbing is all dependant on your knot tying skills though. I hope
you've been practicing?!?

I'll also be inspecting uniforms. Remember prices to win!

Tomorrow Night

Hi All

Firstly I'd like to apologise for the short notice in sending this post.

Unfortunately due to work commitments i cant make it down to Explorer Scouts tomorrow night.



I had planned on taking you to the park (as the forecast looks good).



Even though I wont be there I figure you all can meet upand take advantage of the good weather (fingers crossed).

Have Fun!

Cheers Steg
