Christmas Float Support
Dear Parents,
As you know we have been busy planning our very first Christmas float bringing Santa round the streets of Hampton. This will take place on consecutive nights from Monday 16th December to Thursday 19th December 2019. Our current plan is for the Christmas Float to start off around each area at about 6pm (this time will be confirmed nearer the time). We have split Hampton into four areas and we will be travelling around one area each night following a pre-planned route. As part of the evening we will be knocking on residents doors to let them know that Santa is on his way down their street and to also take round collection buckets to help raise funds for our Scout Group. As I am sure you understand we need your support to make sure this event is a success.
Below is a support form for you to sign up your / your family's support for the event. You can support all four nights / three nights / two nights or just one (any support you can give will be much appreciated). Any members that do all four nights will get a Christmas prize for their hard work.
Please note – that due to the nature of the event our Beaver Scouts and Cub Scouts are unable to support without an adult to support them (Scouts can support this event without Adult support if needed (your support is still more than welcome) but the Leadership volunteers hold the right to ask a member of the Scout Troop to leave if they feel that their behaviour does not comply with our Group Policy).
Scouting and Christmas is all about family so why not come and support us as a family? Collection buckets and Hi-Vis Vests will be provided and we are currently looking at getting Santa hats for everyone to wear to help with the festive feel.
We are also still looking for someone to be our Santa, if you are able to help please let us know and we are much appreciated for your support.
Also, if you have a towbar on your vehicle, would you be willing to tow the float round Hampton on one of the nights?
We would like to thank you in advance for your support and we hope this will be a great start to our Christmas festivities.
Yours in Scouting
