SUMMARY:2025 St George’s Activity Day & Celebration
DESCRIPTION:***Please ensure all adult volunteers who are organising or attending the day have read this information. It has been updated*** \n\n\n\nBlacktoft Beacon District & Beverley and Hornsea District join forces once again to deliver the fantastic St George’s Activity Day and Celebration. \n\n\n\nWhen? – Sunday 27th April 2025 – 9:30am to 4pm \n\n\n\nWhere? – Beverley Race Course\, York Road\, Beverley\, East Yorkshire\, HU17 8QZ \n\n\n\nWhat? – Fun Activity Day filled with amazing experiences for everyone\, as well as the St George’s Celebration Service. \n\n\n\nCost? – £8.50 per young person and no charge for adult volunteers \n\n\n\nDrop Off and Pick Up\n\n\n\nFor anyone just dropping off and not staying\, this will be done in the Owners and Trainers Car Park marked “Drop off & Pick Up” on the map. 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\nVolunteer Parking\n\n\n\nThe Owners and Trainers Car Park must not be used to leave vehicles in for any duration. \n\n\n\nVolunteers 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 Marshals 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. On arrival please follow the instructions of the District Team Volunteers who will be wearing Hi-Vis jackets as to where your area will be. Group areas must be set up by 9:15am. Access to the centre area/ activity area for vehicles will be restricted\, and groups are asked to carry their kit from the car park. If access is required permission must be granted by the event team on site. \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. Weask 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 \n\n\n\nCentre as soon as possible\, this needs to be done prior to 10:15am\, 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– Names of the young people in attendance \n\n\n\n– Names of adults in attendance \n\n\n\n– Contact Number for the Group Volunteer Coordinator (must be on site) \n\n\n\nYou must hand in 2 physical attendance lists on the day\, and it is advised you also have a physical copy. We will use these in the event of a lost young person\, incident or a first aid situation. The order of the parade will be set in the order groups book in. \n\n\n\nKit List\n\n\n\nIt can be very cold at the Racecourse due to the wind\, so please ensure everyone wraps up warm and are prepared for all types of weather. \n\n\n\n– Hat \n\n\n\n– Waterproofs (Jacket and ideally trousers) \n\n\n\n– Coat \n\n\n\n– Warm Clothing \n\n\n\n– Spare/ Change of Outer Clothes \n\n\n\n– Uniform \n\n\n\n– Necker \n\n\n\n– Packed Lunch \n\n\n\n– Water Bottle \n\n\n\n– Medication if needed (to be handled inline with group procedures) \n\n\n\n– Suitable Footwear (no crocs or wellies) \n\n\n\n– Sense of Fun and Adventure \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 a suitable first aid kit/s for the size and needs of their Group and deal with minor incidents immediately. \n\n\n\nFor any further First Aid requirements you can visit the First Aid post at the Rapid Lad Bar. \n\n\n\nPhotos\n\n\n\nPhotographs will be taken throughout the day by designated event photographer. Upon check in you must advise us of anyone who is unable to have their photograph taken\, you will then be issued with an orange wrist band which ideally needs to be worn fixed to the person necker or similar. \n\n\n\nWinfields Outdoors are supporting the event and will be taking some promotional videos and photos. Their staff will be made aware of the Orange Wristband guidance\, however if any parents/ guardians don’t want their young people photographed please advise this at check in. \n\n\n\nWe cannot control and do not take any responsibility for photographs taken by others on the day\, but ask that everyone be aware and mindful of this. \n\n\n\nSafeguarding\n\n\n\nThe Scouts Yellow Card and Safeguarding procedures and rules must be followed at all times. Whilst it is not required for all adults in attendance to have a valid DBS it is recommended. Any adult that does not have a valid DBS must be accompanied at all times. \n\n\n\nIt is mandatory that all Safety and Safeguarding training is valid when attending the event. \n\n\n\nToilets\n\n\n\nThese will be clearly marked with separate arrangements for young people and adults. \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/staffing 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\nA copy of the general event risk assessment will be circulated ahead of the event. Activity specific risk assessments will be available on the day as part of the check in packs for the groups that are running the activities. If you would like to see a copy before please get in touch. \n\n\n\nYou will see on the site map the location of all the activities. Please make this available for all the volunteers and young people to see. An up-to-date version will be available on the day. \n\n\n\nOutline Programme\n\n\n\n8:30am – 9:30am Volunteers and Activity Providers Arrive and Set Up \n\n\n\n9:30am – 10:15am Young People arrive and assemble in your Group areas. \n\n\n\n10:20am Opening ceremony (outside Rapid Lad Bar) \n\n\n\n10:30am – 1:30pm Activity bases \n\n\n\nPacked lunches to be eaten in Group areas during the activities and at a time that is best for your Group. \n\n\n\n1:30pm – 2:00pm Groups to change into uniform and assemble in their Group areas. \n\n\n\n2:00pm Parade around the activity area\, across the racecourse and then into the Grandstand for the St George’s Day Celebration Service. There will be a parade master who will give clear instructions on the day of where Groups should line up. The parade will be lead by the Bag Piper\, PC Danny Fleming. \n\n\n\nParents/carers and families are welcome to come back from to watch the parade\, but there will be no seating for them during the service. \n\n\n\n2:30pm There will be a short celebration service to renew our promises and recognise achievements of the year\, accompanied by Beverley Brass Band. \n\n\n\n3:30pm The parade will reform and return to the Group areas for dismissal and home. \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\nVIP Wristbands\n\n\n\nThis year we will not be sending out invites prior to the event. Instead the volunteer checking in the group will be given the VIP Wristbands. The VIP Wristbands will need to be worn to access the “Fastrack Lanes”. These will be clearly marked at each activity. These should run just like at a theme park\, where spaces for the activity are filled from both queues\, resulting in the Fasttrack queues being shorter as they have less people in. VIP Wristbands are only to be used once per activity. \n\n\n\nParade\n\n\n\nPlease bring your Group Colours/ Standard (not union flag)\, which will be required for the St George’s Day Parade and Celebration 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. \n\n\n\nAfter 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\nParents/ Guardians will not be allowed back into the Activity Area to collect their young people until all of the parade has made it back safely. When collecting young people it is vital that an Adult Volunteer from the group is aware that a young person is beingcollected. \n\n\n\nContacts for the day\n\n\n\nLinda Thelwell – Leader in Charge – 07740 553710 \n\n\n\nJacob Birch – Deputy Leader in Charge – 07926 385306 \n\n\n\nGary McCune – Safety Officer – 07770 608901 \n\n\n\nBooking Your Spaces\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. \n\n\n\nBlacktoft Beacon Groups please complete the below linked online form by 31st March 2025. \n\n\n\nhttps://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=0Uk2klU4q0arGxUr07zDRSjEuVfpLQxJs11lC7dmtCtUOFFSRklKQU40R0gySk42UDFMQkdOUTYwQi4u \n\n\n\nTo avoid duplication of data\, please designate one person from your Group to complete the form for all Sections. \n\n\n\nIf you have any questions you can contact the team on the below email address. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you on the day.

SUMMARY:Williams Den (Squirrels & Beavers)
DESCRIPTION:We are organising our first day out at Williams Den for our Squirrels and Beavers across Blacktoft Beacon! \n\n\n\nThere’s all sorts to do at Williams Den\, including indoor and outdoor adventure play areas\, woodland walk and plenty of space to play. There won’t be a set activity timetable\, your Squirrels and Beavers will be free to do what they want\, when they. We will provide an activity booklet giving you and your groups ideas of things to do such as a scavenger hunt\, treasure hunt\, word search\, things to create in the sand etc! It’s completely up to you on how much you want to do. The purpose of this event is to have a fun day out and give Squirrels and Beavers the opportunity to meet new friends and enjoy a *hopefully* sunny day full of adventure… plus every young person will also receive a scoop of ice cream! \n\n\n\nGroups/sections are responsible for their young people throughout the day\, including supervising them and ensuring they are entertained (but with plenty to do at Williams Den\, this shouldn’t be a problem). The district team will be around and on hand throughout day to support and be a familiar point of contact. \n\n\n\nMembers should bring a pack up for lunch\, it’s up to groups to pick a time to eat that’s good for them. \n\n\n\nWilliams Den is pretty central in the district\, so it’s ideal for Parents to drop straight off. But if groups wish to organise transport\, this is for them to arrange separately. \n\n\n\nCost £13.50 per young person to include a single scoop of ice-cream. \n\n\n\nThe groups must bring a ratio of 1 adult to every 4 young people and these adults will not be charged an entry fee. Whilst this ratio is different to POR for Beavers\, it is the ratio Williams Den has asked for all young people. Any extra adults (over the 1-4 ratio) will be charged £5 each.  \n\n\n\nBookings can be made at https://bookings.blacktoftbeacon-scouts.org.uk. Deadline for bookings is a week before (22nd June). Further details\, such as what to do on arrival\, will be shared with leaders booked on closer to the time.

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.

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.

A member of the District Team will act as the Leader in charge for the event\, so you don’t need to have an extra adult in your ratio for that. \n\n\n\nLastly\, please check on Compass that all Leaders and any parents or new adults coming with you have a valid DBS check in place for the event and have completed the mandatory training for their role. Their membership numbers are required for your NAN Form. \n\n\n\nHere is a copy of the Kit List. \n\n\n\nOn Friday night\, young people can arrive from 6:00pm. Each Section will be assigned a door where they will come in on Friday night and leave via on Saturday morning. You will be told this in the weeks before the event and we ask that you communicate it to your parents/carers in advance. Here there will be somewhere to leave their kit whilst they have a tour of the attraction and take part in the activities. Packed suppers and drinks should be taken out and placed in your coloured trolley here. \n\n\n\nSupper will be eaten anywhere around 8:30pm\, so please advise parents/carers to feed their young people something beforehand. It is easier if their supper is all disposable too\, however it is advisable to bring a refillable drinks bottle for the duration of the evening. Adults should bring travel mugs too for hot drinks provided by The Deep. \n\n\n\nBased on the number of young people in your Section\, The Deep will allocate you to an appropriate sized sleeping area for your young people\, Leaders and any Young Leaders. \n\n\n\nIn the morning\, after a peaceful (!) night’s sleep\, The Deep staff will allocate your Pack a time slot for breakfast and visiting the shop. Parents can pick up from 8:00am on Saturday morning\, with everyone out by 8:15am so the staff can do a quick turnaround ready to open to the public.

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.
