As St George is the Patron Saint of Scouting, each year, on the Sunday nearest to St George’s Day, all Scouts in Barnet Borough District take part in a Parade which ends with a Promise Renewal ceremony. This is an important event and we expect all members of the Group to attend.
As part of this special day, all 6FB Scouts and Cubs are invited to meet at Hollywood Bowl before the Parade for a game and some food, a treat which will be paid for by the Group. Afterwards we will walk to Victoria Park where the Parade is going to form up. Please note that if you can’t come to the Bowling, you can still meet us at the Park for the Parade. (Coming to the Bowling only is not an option.)
Bowling
Sunday 21st April, 1130 at Hollywood Bowl, High Road, Finchley, N12 0GL in full uniform.
Parade
Sunday 21st April, 1330 at Victoria Park, N3 (Ballards Lane entrance) in full uniform (if this is a problem for you, please speak to one of the leaders) – shirts tucked in, scarf ironed and shoes polished. Wear something under your uniform if the weather is not warm.
Along with all the other Groups in Barnet District, we will form up for the Parade in the park and then proceed to Stephens House, East End Road, N3 3QE for the Promise Renewal. Parents are welcome to view the Parade en route – anyone walking alongside is asked to please keep to the pavement and when the Parade reaches Stephens House, wait outside until the whole Parade is through.
NOTE: If heavy rain is forecast the Parade may be called off; the District Commissioner will inform the Group Scout Leader during the morning.
