A word from Jo . . .

As the Assistant Group Scout Leader for 1st Long Sutton, I would like to welcome you to our brand new revamped website !
 
Scouting is well and truly alive and well in Long Sutton, so much so that we have for the first time had to draw up a waiting list.  Over the past 4 years, the number of children involved in the Group has more than doubled, and Long Sutton is now the second largest Group in the District by one member!!!
 
In January 2005 our old District of Holbeach joined with Spalding District to form a new combined District of Holbeach & Spalding.  Long Sutton is one of only two Groups still remaining from the old Holbeach District, and our Group has a large catchment area from the Norfolk border in the east to the town of Spalding in the west of the District (approx 25 miles across).
 
One thing that Scout Groups are always short of (and we are no exception!) are adult helpers and leaders.  We encourage parents, friends and family of our young people to take an active role in local Scouting, whether this might be as an occasional helper, a regular section supporter, a member of our Executive Committee, or a part of our fundraising committee.  Whatever time you have to offer, we can always use more help!
 
If you wish to join our Group as an adult or a young person, please click on the "JOIN US" link on the left of every page, or email me here.
 
I look forward to welcoming you to our Scout Group very soon!
