We ask that all adults return quickly to their vehicles to keep the Drop Off area as clear as possible.  \n\n\n\nAt pick up time the Owners and Trainers Car Park can be used to park in\, for adults to then proceed to collect their young people. When collecting your young people it is vital that you tell one of the Adult Volunteers from your group that you are collecting. \n\n\n\nDirections from the Car Parking Marshalls must be followed at all times and any inappropriate behaviour towards the marshals may result in you being asked to leave the site.  \n\n\n\nVolunteer Parking \n\n\n\nThe Owners and Trainers Car Park must not be used to leave vehicles in for any duration. Volunteers may park their vehicles in one of two areas\, which are clearly marked on the map as “Volunteer Parking”. \n\n\n\nDirections from the Car Parking Marshalls must be followed at all times and any inappropriate behaviour towards the marshals may result in you being asked to leave the site. \n\n\n\nGroup Areas \n\n\n\nThe site will be accessible from 8:30am for Volunteers to arrive and set up their areas.

Group areas must be set up and all vehicles off the centre area by 9:15am and there will be no vehicle movement in the centre area until advised it is allowed\, unless in the case of an emergency.  \n\n\n\nIt is the responsibility of each group to provide their own shelter for their area (dining shelter\, mess tent or small marquee).  \n\n\n\nIt is advised that your group area where possible has some visible signage that it is your groups so the young people know where to return to.  \n\n\n\nFood & Refreshments \n\n\n\nTo keep the cost of the day down there will be no Race Course refreshment areas open. We ask that all attendees bring a packed lunch\, these are to be eaten in your group areas. It is advised that groups provide their own drinks in their area. There will be drinks refreshments available in the Rapid Lad Bar for adult volunteers only.  \n\n\n\nAttendance Lists \n\n\n\nEach group should have 1 adult volunteer to coordinate their group on the day\, this means not one person per section is to book in but one person per group. This adult volunteer must book in the Young People and Adult Volunteers with the District Team in the Operations Centre as soon as possible\, this needs to be done prior to 10:30am\, when the activities begin. We would prefer that you book in before all your young people arrive\, and come back to the Operations Centre if your numbers have changed.  \n\n\n\nThe attendance list must have on it: \n\n\n\n\nNames of the young people in attendance \n\n\n\nNames of adults in attendance\n\n\n\nContact Number for the Group Volunteer Coordinator (must be on site)\n\n\n\n\nYou must hand in 2 physical attendance lists on the day\, and it is advised you also have a physical copy.

SUMMARY:Austria 2023… Go Big or Go Home!
DESCRIPTION:Join Humberside Scouts biggest adventure!\n\n\n\nThe County Team are currently putting our amazing event together\, which will allow many young people from across the county to take place in an adventure of a lifetime\, making memories that really will last forever.All the information you need is below and on Humberside Scouts International Page.  \n\n\n\nWant to share information with your young people? Humberside Scouts have created this page on their website to share with Scouts & Explorers and their parents. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat is this?\n\n\n\nWe are planning a large scale event to give as many young people as possible an amazing international experience. \n\n\n\nWhen?\n\n\n\nThe event will take place for seven days between the 13th and 28th August 2023. The exact dates will be released once we have confirmed numbers and agreed methods of transport. \n\n\n\nWhere?\n\n\n\nPfadfinderdorf Zellhof\, International Scout and Guide Centre in Austria. \n\n\n\nHow?\n\n\n\nWe will be looking at options for transport once we have an idea of numbers\, after which we will be able to provide more information regarding travel plans. \n\n\n\nWho?\n\n\n\nThe event is open to youth members born between 20 August 2005 and 13 August 2013. \n\n\n\nHow many can go?\n\n\n\nWe don’t plan to limit numbers for the event and we will not be holding a selection event (as is the case with events such as the World Scout Jamboree and EuroJam). That said\, we need to be practical and ensure that we can get everyone there and back\, as well as ensuring they all have an amazing adventure. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBookings \n\n\n\nHow do I book on to the event?\n\n\n\nComplete the Expression of Interest Form here to give us a estimate number of young people you will be bringing.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInsurance \n\n\n\nIs insurance included? \n\n\n\nYes\, we will be arranging insurance as part of the trip.  We will provide details of this nearer the time\, however\, we will not be covering personal belongings as part of the group cover. Individuals may wish to purchase their own cover for personal belongings. \n\n\n\nWhat about COVID? \n\n\n\nWe will only commit to spending money when we have to\, but like most events\, it is unlikely that we will be able to get insurance for COVID related claims.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTraining \n\n\n\nDo we need to do any additional training to come along? \n\n\n\nNo. However\, all Leaders attending need to ensure they are compliant with all mandatory Scout training appropriate to their current role and hold a valid DBS for the duration of the event.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTravel \n\n\n\nA young person / Leader in our group doesn’t currently have a valid passport. Can they still attend?  \n\n\n\nEveryone will need their own valid passport when we go. Passports must be valid for six months after our return (therefore they need to be valid until 28 February 2024). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPersonal Data \n\n\n\nHow will you be collecting and storing personal details of those attending?  \n\n\n\nWe plan to use OSM and will share more information about this once groups have expressed their interest. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFamilies \n\n\n\nIf I come as a Leader\, can I bring my children with me?\n\n\n\nNo. There will be no provision (catering or activities) for any young person outside of the specified age range. Leaders attending are responsible for the young people they are bringing so will not have time to look after their own children. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore we get there \n\n\n\nWill we meet before we go to Austria? \n\n\n\nYes. There will be a series of pre-events where you will get to meet the other Leaders and Sections in your sub-camp.  \n\n\n\nWhat happens if one of my young people or Leaders drop out? Will they get their money back? \n\n\n\nAll money paid is non-refundable. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you coming?\n\n\n\nYou don’t have to commit to names yet\, but we are looking for an idea of interested groups and a rough idea of numbers to help with planning.  Final numbers and deposits are due by 31 March 2022. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Your Group’s Interest Now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLeader Participants\n\n\n\nHow many young people can I bring? \n\n\n\nAs many as you have that want to go!  \n\n\n\nHow many Leaders can I bring? \n\n\n\nLeader places are limited to one per five young people. However\, if your young people wish to attend\, but you do not have any / enough adults to bring them\, please still complete the expression of interest form and we will be in touch. \n\n\n\nWhat if none of my Leaders want to go\, but the young people do? \n\n\n\nPlease complete the expression of interest form and put the number of Leaders as 0. We will then be in touch to help link you with Leaders who wish to go\, but do not have any young people to bring.   \n\n\n\nThe Leaders in our Group aren’t confident in taking young people abroad\, but want our young people to attend. What can we do? \n\n\n\nThis trip would be a great first experience for Leaders taking young people abroad. A lot of organising work has been done for you by the Planning and Delivery Team. You just need to ensure that your young people enjoy themselves whilst they are there!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYoung People Participants \n\n\n\nWe have some Cubs who will be 10 when you go\, can I sign them up now? \n\n\n\nAny young person can attend that is born between 20th August 2005 and 13th August 2013. Even if they are not a Scout now\, they will be by the time we go.   \n\n\n\nAre the above dates flexible?\n\n\n\nUnfortunately not.  \n\n\n\nWe have Explorers that will be 18 when we go. Can they still attend with our Explorer Unit? \n\n\n\nNo.   \n\n\n\nCan young leaders attend? \n\n\n\nWe want all young people who are attending to experience the fantastic adventure and the opportunities available to them. Therefore\, young leaders must attend as an Explorer. If young leaders do not attend an explorer unit\, we can add them to a unit within their District for this event. \n\n\n\nCan Network members come along? \n\n\n\nThe trip is for young people who are born between 20th August 2005 and 13th August 2013. Network members can sign up as leaders (see above) and must have a valid DBS and have completed any necessary mandatory training. \n\n\n\nI have a young person and/or Leader with additional needs. Can they still come? \n\n\n\nPart of our aim is to ensure that the trip is as accessible as possible. Please don’t let the activities put you off. We can work with the needs and wishes of young people to ensure they have the best adventure possible.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYoung People Participants \n\n\n\nWe have some Cubs who will be 10 when you go\, can I sign them up now? \n\n\n\nAny young person can attend that is born between 20th August 2005 and 13th August 2013.

The Operation Centre will be located inside the Rapid Lad Bar and will be clearly marked. We would prefer that attendance lists are handed in before all your young people arrive\, and your Group Leader comes to let us know of anyone that has not turned up\, rather than bringing it to us once the activities have started. The order of the parade will be the order that Groups book in\, so don’t be last! \n\n\n\nCost: The cost for the day is £7.00 per Young Person and there is no charge for adults. \n\n\n\nGroup Area: Each Scout Group will be allocated a base for the day.

Groups are requested to arrive and assemble in their own areas and eat their packed lunches as a Scout Group in their area. It may also be helpful for your young people if you place some visible sign over your area so they can find their way back to it and parents/carers can find you too!To keep the cost of the day down for our young people we have asked the Racecourse not to open any of their refreshment areas\, so you may want to provide drinks in your area too.

SUMMARY:2022 St George's Activity Day
DESCRIPTION:St Georges Day 2022 InfoDownload\n\n\n\nWe are holding the above event on Sunday 24th April 2022. Arrival will be from 9.30am with a start time of 10.20am. The St George’s Day service will draw the event to a close and departure will be from 3.30pm. This year will see Blacktoft Beacon and Beverley & Hornsea Districts join together for the day.  \n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\nBeverley Race Course\, York Road\, Beverley\, East Yorkshire\, HU17 8QZ.  \n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\nThe Owners and Trainers car park is to be used for parking and dropping off with car park marshals available to assist. Please encourage parents/carers to car share where possible and to quickly drop their young people off so they can return to their cars promptly.  \n\n\n\nAttendance Lists\n\n\n\nPlease have one Leader designated to coordinate your Group during the day. We require a list with the names of all young people and leaders attending from your Group as soon as possible on the day. On this list there should also be a contact number for your designated Leader. We will use these details in situations such as a lost young person or a first aid incident.  \n\n\n\nPlease hand 2 copies of your attendance list with the fees to the operation centre as you come onto site. The operation centre will be located inside the Rapid Lad Bar and will be clearly marked. We would prefer that attendance lists are handed in before all your young people arrive\, and your Group Leader comes to let us know of anyone that has not turned up\, rather than bringing it to us once the activities has started. The order of the parade will be the order that Groups book in\, so don’t be last!  \n\n\n\nCost\n\n\n\nThe cost for the day is £6 per Young Person and there is no charge for adults.  \n\n\n\nGroup Area\n\n\n\nEach Scout Group will be allocated a base for the day. Please look out for a member of the District Organising Team\, in a high-vis vest\, who will direct you to your area upon arrival.  \n\n\n\nIt is the responsibility of each group to provide some shelter in this area (dining shelter\, mess tent or small marquee).  \n\n\n\nThe site will be available from 8am on the Sunday morning if you wish to erect this in advance of the arrival of your young people. Groups are requested to arrive and assemble in their own areas and eat their packed lunches as a Scout Group in their area. It may also be helpful for your young people if you place some visible sign over your area so they can find their way back to it and parents/carers can find you too!  \n\n\n\nTo keep the cost of the day down for our young people we have asked the Race Course not to open any of their refreshment areas so you may want to provide drinks in your area too. Refreshments for adults will be available inside the Rapid Lad Bar.  \n\n\n\nOutline Programme for the day\n\n\n\n9:30am – 10:15am Young People arrive and assemble in your Group areas. 10:20am Opening ceremony 10:30am – 1:30pm Activity bases Packed lunches to be eaten in Group areas during the activities  and at a time that is best for your Group. 1:30pm – 2:00pm Groups to change into uniform and assemble in their Group areas. 2:00pm Parade around the activity area\, across the racecourse and then into the Grandstand for the St George’s Day service. There will be a parade master who will give clear instructions on the day of where Groups should line up.  Parents/carers and families are welcome to come back from 1:45pm to watch the parade\, but there will be no seating for them during the service. 2:30pm There will be a short service to renew our promises and recognise achievements of the year\, accompanied by Beverley Brass Band. 3:30pm The parade will reform and return to the Group areas for dismissal and home. \n\n\n\nActivities\n\n\n\nThe purpose of these is to give the young people the opportunity to mix\, get to know each other and have some fun! The young people will be free to wander around the site and join in with any activity on a drop-in basis.  \n\n\n\nAs in previous years\, we have brought in a lot of external activity providers to give Leaders a chance to enjoy the day too. If you are running/manning an activity base it is advisable to operate a rota or something similar so everyone can get out and see the young people having a great time.  \n\n\n\nYou will see on the site map (to be released) the location of all the activities. Please make this available for your Leaders and young people to see.  \n\n\n\nFirst Aid\n\n\n\nThere will be a First Aid post on site but it is expected that all Groups will bring first aid kits for their Group base and deal with very minor incidents immediately.  \n\n\n\nParade\n\n\n\nPlease bring your Group Colours\, which will be required for the St George’s Day parade and service. Parents/carers and families are also welcome to return from 1:45pm to watch the Parade at 2:00pm. However\, there will not be enough seats in the grandstand for them to sit down for the service\, but they are welcome to stand at the side to watch. After the dismissal of the parade\, all Young People must return back to their Group Areas where parents/carers can collect them from Leaders.  \n\n\n\nPersonal equipment\n\n\n\nEveryone will require activity dress\, Scout uniform for the parade\, suitable footwear\, waterproof coat\, warm jumper\, drinks bottle and a packed lunch. It can be very cold up on the Racecourse due to the wind\, so please ensure your young people wrap up warm and are prepared for all types of weather.  \n\n\n\nToilets\n\n\n\nThese will be clearly marked with separate arrangements for young people and adults.  \n\n\n\nLitter\n\n\n\nIt is the responsibility of all Groups to leave their area as they found it\, taking your rubbish home with you please.  \n\n\n\nBooking your places\n\n\n\nTo allow us to budget\, plan and ensure we have enough resources on the day (such as pancake batter!) we need to know if your Group will be attending. Please complete the online form by 27th March 2022 to give us approximate numbers attending from your Group. To avoid duplication of data\, please designate one person from your Group to complete the form for all Sections.  \n\n\n\nhttps://forms.office.com/r/PMTiPu4P4E \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Fells Marathon
DESCRIPTION:For the most up to date details\, head to the Fells Marathon website. \n\n\n\nThe Fells Marathon is a two-day hiking competition for Scouts and Explorer Scouts. Carrying full kit for the two days\, the Scout teams walk around 20 miles while the Explorer Scout teams walk about 26 miles. Overnight the teams cater for themselves on a remote site monitored by event staff – no leaders or team supporters are permitted there. It is a test of navigation\, camping skills and endurance. \n\n\n\nEvent History\n\n\n\nThe idea came to create a similar event for scouts\, to challenge them to survive 2 days carrying all they need and navigate a route against the clock\, from this the Haltemprice Scouts Fells Marathon was born. \n\n\n\nThe event has now run for over 40 years and has changed with the times but still carries it original ethos. The event now has an average of 30 teams from both Scouts & Explorers. \n\n\n\nThe Event Today\n\n\n\nOriginally the event was organised by both John and Dave. Today The Fells Marathon is run by the FELLS MARATHON COMMITTEE a group of 20 scouters headed by Neal Ingram. \n\n\n\nThe maximum entry is 35 teams. Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis with entry fee and ALL forms securing places. \n\n\n\nWho can take part?\n\n\n\nThe event is open to both Scouts 10yrs-14yrs and Explorer Scouts 14yrs-18yrs with separate routes for each age group. The scouts walk 30km and explorers 43km over the 2 days\, with a remote camp at the end of Saturday. The event is split into 3 categories as shown below: \n\n\n\nFells Lite:\n\n\n\nMinimum Age : 10Maximum Age: Under 13\n\n\n\nScouts:\n\n\n\nMinimum Age 11.5Maximum Age: 14.5\n\n\n\nExplorer Scouts:\n\n\n\nMinimum Age:13.5Maximum Age: Under 18\n\n\n\nNetwork:\n\n\n\nMinimum Age:18Maximum Age: Under 25\n\n\n\nNote:  Participants must have reached the category age on the date of the event. Participants must be below the maximum age at the start of the event.
