While at EuroJam, the European Scout Jamboree, three Scouts from the 1st North Sutton’s Chindit Scout Troop achieved their 75th night away with the Scout Association.
Sophie, Stephen and Martin are pictured with Mark Patrick (Assistant County Commissioner Scouts) after receiving their awards at the jamboree, surrounded by the flags of the 68 countries represented.
When presenting the awards, Mark said these were the first three of the new awards presented, and also congratulated Sophie on her achievement, since she had not been a Beaver Scout or a Cub Scout and had clocked up her 75 nights entirely as a Scout with Chindit Troop in only 3 years and 3 months.
Greater London South West Scout County launched 75-night and 100-night extended awards for the Nights Away scheme earlier this year. Further details of the awards can be found on the Greater London South West web site.
