As the District Beaver Leader for New Forest South, it falls upon me to organise some fantastic events for the local Beaver colonies to attend. I have only been in post since March, and have run a Creative Challenge day on an Indian theme as my first event for the district which was attended by three local colonies.

This was a new event for the district and went really well and the enthusiam that the Beavers showed, has made us think of new ways to inject excitment into the activities we do as a District.

A Party at Serendipty Sams - October 08 (We have booked the indoor play centre for an inclusive Beaver session one evening, where all the district Beavers and their parents are welcome along.)
