They were heading to Hylands Park in Essex, which was playing host to 21st World Scout Jamboree to celebrate 100 years of Scouting.

Showstoppers 2007

Many thanks to everybody who came and supported this years Gang Show at The Kenneth More Theatre.

Five performances with full houses were produced by The Gang. Congratulations to the whole production team, cast and back stage support in receiving National Gang Show Recognition which entitles the wearing of the Ralph Reader Gang Show Emblem on a red scarf. Well Done.

Festival of Scouting - Live 2007 - Saturday 24 November

LIVE 07 is the last word (nationally, at least) on our Centenary year – a unique event taking place at The O2 arena in London (formerly the Dome) on Saturday, 24 th November 2007 featuring 3,000 participants performing to two capacity audiences totalling 30,000! It celebrates the very best of UK Scouting, appealing to all, whatever their age, culture, faith or Scouting background – a spectacular “must attend” event that won’t happen for at least another 100 years!
