About the Event
REMEMBRENCE SUNDAY PARADES – SUNDAY 10TH NOVEMBER 2019
We’ve been trying to collect as much information on the local Remembrance Parades as possible for Sunday 10th November. This is to ensure you can get this out to your sections if you haven't done so already.
Standard message for all parades is that all Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers, Network & Leaders should wear smart uniform with dark blue or black smart trousers and black or brown shoes. NO trainers or jeans please. Don’t forget woggles for neckers. If it is cold tell your members to wear an extra layer under their Scout shirts - unless it is freezing, or pouring with rain we won’t be wearing top coats.
This is an important series of parades and we do expect everyone to attend. This is only one of two parades we request per year and it is important that everyone makes a big effort on this occasion.
Your section leaders should be able to let you know which one your section or group will be participating in.
