Happy Anniversary to 12th Farnham (Wrecclesham), which was restarted after over 9 years, 10 years ago by Adam Chambers, Tony Marshall and Maria Finch, who are all still Section Leaders for Scouts, Cubs and Beavers, respectively – thank you for your support and commitment.

The Scout camp, which was open to the whole District, started on Friday with a 5km or 5 mile hike depending who you ask….and continued with a full day of activities on Saturday, a visit from the Mayor of Farnham and a fantastic campfire with skits and songs, Sunday more activities and then lots of clearing up by the leaders.

Well done to all the volunteers who made the weekend a memorable one for all.

Frantic 2023

Hello everyone…..

Frantic 2023 is just around the corner.

What is Frantic:

FRANTIC 23 is taking place over the weekend of  14th – 16th JULY 2023

At Herons Wey & Garners Field Tilford

The event started in 2007 as a camp for the three Scout Districts – Godalming, Farnham and Haslemere to celebrate the Scouting Centenary. They had such a good time it was repeated in 2009, and from 2012 included the equivalent Guiding Districts/Divisions.

The last event in 2018 saw over 1000 young people form Scouting and Guiding taking part in various activities over the weekend event.

For those who have never been it is a weekend of activities for the young people.

Scouts, Guides and Cubs camp for the whole weekend.

Brownies, Beavers and Rainbows join the fun for the day on Saturday. (although can camp if you want)

Young Leaders, Rangers, Explorer Scouts are asked to help with the event, either centrally or with their unit, but can have some time to join the fun.
