Contact from 1st Longham Scouts

Please see below the contact I received from a scout (Daniel Goodliffe) from 1st Longham Scouts in the UK. Note as per his email below they are very close to Brownsea Island, the birthplace of scouting 100 years ago.

I have written back to Daniel but if anyone would like to correspond with him I can provide his contact details.

Corresponding with him can earn credits towards your centenary medal project.

"Hello,

We are from 1st Longham Scout Group in Dorset, England and are located quite close to where the first Scout camp took place on Brownsea Island in Dorset.

To celebrate 100 years of Scouting, we are attempting to visit as many Scout groups online from around the world as possible. We would appreciate it if you sign our guestbook on our website www.longhamscouts.org.uk

If you are attending the World Jamboree in England this year and paying a visit to Brownsea Island, let us know as one of our Scouts will be one of the only in the world to be camping on the island for the duration of the Jamboree.

We would also be interested to hear what your favourite activities are to compare what different scouts get up to around the world.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Longham Scouts"
