After Several years of amazing service our current secretary is stepping down for a well deserved rest and some relaxation time. I’m sure he would disagree 😅This means we have an opening on our executive committee for a secretary role (voluntary). This means you get to come and be part of the madness that is our quarterly Exec meetings with quality tea and coffee. Sometimes we even get biscuits. The arguments are always passionate and for the good of the campsite and everyone eventually agrees to what I want 😬So, fancy a new exciting role in scouting? Send us a message! Meetings are held at the campsite every three months at 19:30 and are around 2hrs. Role involves minutes taking and occasionally letters sent out to our partners or to whoever we’ve upset generally ☺️COME JOIN OUR AWESOME TEAM Matt ✌️ ... See MoreSee Less

Like all badly written stories this story has an awful twist. That blooming site manager who wanted to ditch the place has only been convinced to stay 😅Yes. To all our beautiful supporters. I am happy to announce that after so tense negotiations on one Danemead’s many picnic benches and a lot of heart string pulling from my better half, I have decided to continue on as Site Manager. I have no idea if the crew or our customers are going to be happy with this but your stuck with me for the foreseeable 🤣😅🥲😘Matt ✌️- The old but now new Site Manager 🤷‍♂️ ... See MoreSee Less
