Explorers Report 2007/8


Explorer Scouting has again officially re-started in Fitzwilliam District this year. We all operate under the same district necker (being allied to our parent groups by the unit logo/emblem), but due to logistics and travel, currently meet at 3 separate group bases.
There are 13 regular Explorer members and several leaders. All Explorers are currently working towards their Chief Scout Platinum and Bronze DOE Awards.
All Explorer events are viewable on the Explorer Blog (Thanks to Ian WROE for creating) http://fitzwilliamexplorers.blogspot.com
