Two of our Leaders from the District are going to bosnia.
I have enclosed some info regarding what they are planning on doing.
Brian and June Miller are planning a return trip to Bosnia with International Fire and Rescue (IFRA).
The main aim of the mission is to train firefighters in using breathing apparatus, and in First Aid skills.
We also plan to visit the local village school, which is somewhat deprived.
It would be great if you could help us with our 'mini' venture - Pencil Case Appeal.
That is to donate pencils, erasers, sharpeners, rulers, pens and pencil cases to give to each of the children within the local school. Kevin also gave me an idea to take out some solar powered calculators.
You may be able to help as a whole group, or an individual section. Any donations would be greatfully received, prior to breaking up for the Summer Holidays.
A photograph would be a bonus to take out with us, to show the Bosnian children who donated these items, but is optional.
Another idea that crossed my mind was that Cubs may want to write or Beavers draw a picture to exchange (similar to having a penpal).
