1st Finchampstead Scout Group is 90 years old this year.

To celebrate this birthday, and to raise money for our new minibus, eight of our Group's Leaders will attempt to complete The Three Peaks Challenge on 29th June 2009.

Wokingham Half Marathon - Sunday 24th May

We urgently need more help to hand out water to the 3000 runners (on their way out and on their way back).

The Annual General Meeting of 1st Finchampstead Scout Group will take place on Tuesday 12th May at 7.30pm at Finchbase.

More details of the meeting will be available later.

Please find below a list of jobs that we will need fulfilling within our group to be able to continue to grow and move forward.

We are always on the look out for new adults to help out.  This could be either in uniform or on the group exec.

Well done to everyone who attended the St Georges Day Parade.
