FAREWELL FELLOWSHIP HELLO SAS to the Scout Fellowship after 34
What a great week we had at Peak 2010, I know a lot of Active Support members were in evidence on the staff, all working very hard and thank you to all those who travelled specially to attend the Active Support/Trefoil Guild reception on the Monday. Members were treated to refreshments and a tour of the
years. A bookmark specially designed and made by Tom to mark the occasion was given to everyone. Scout Fellowship will officially finish nationally at the end of the year but in Derbyshire we are now officially Scout Active Support. Most former Fellowships have

The Phoenix Active Support Unit is also being set up; Peter Hogg will be the coordinator. This group will give support in walking and sectional activities, 4 Inns, Kinder Walk, Beaver Bonanza, etc. and will embrace all those who help at these events regularly, they can now be an Active Support member.

camp, by buggy in some cases, with our young ambassadors as tour guides. These young people were excellent and feedback from all those who went on the tour shows that they were very impressed. Thank you to Ann Hall and members of the Peak hospitality team for making the visit so memorable. Our get together at Peak was very well attended when Tom made the official launch of Scout Active Support in the county. It was goodbye Scout Fellowship with a glass of wine and a toast
S
made a smooth transition, there‟s not much change and members will still continue to support Scouting as they have done before. One advantage of the new guidelines is that we are now encouraged to set up Active Support groups for activities. I am pleased to report that the first Unit in the county is the Mountain Biking Active Support Unit. Paul Gant will be the coordinator of this new Unit which will support cycling in all ways in the county, the bikes having been purchased from Peak.
Our annual quiz will take place in March 2011, thanks to Chesterfield Active Support Unit for offering to organise it. More details soon. And finally - after purchasing some tickets for Chesterfield Active Support duck race, I was sorry to hear that one of my ducks came last. But thank you Mary, for presenting me with the booby prize at Peak, a set of yellow ducks for my bath. You will be pleased to know that as I don‟t have a bath very often, usually a shower, a four month old relative will enjoy them in his bath!

issioner, De
Well can you believe it is only a few weeks ago since a lot of us were enjoying the culmination of 3 years + work enjoying Peak 2010. Those who were there will know it was a brilliant success with nothing but positive appreciative comments from all. once again a massive thank you to not only Stuart, Anne and teams but also the hundreds of leaders who did all the work in taking or supporting our young people. Not forgetting of course that for quite few people there is still a lot of work to do before Peak 2010 is completed. I hope you have all managed some time to yourselves over the remainder of the summer (Heather & myself are in a very sunny Guernsey at the moment) and are ready to enjoy for the majority a new Scouting year . September is certainly a busy month for all the new Scout Active Support unit centred around Mountain biking has its first meeting . Thanks to Paul Gant for agreeing to be the co-ordinator in what promises to be a very much needed area of Scouting. Whilst at the moment the equipment is stored at Drum Hill and the first meeting based there it will be very much a County facility and operate County wide. Thanks also to Pete Hogg for Co-ordinating the new Phoenix Scout Act ive Support unit this is based around supporting County events / activities together
with a stong walking commitment. Pete will no doubt be contributing more detail in the next K. Scout. The third Scout Active support unit in the process of being formalised is based around the supporters / team at Drum Hill. September also sees a lot of Scout activities, the Border Hike, Kinder walk, Rampage a very busy month for that section keep up the good work. I am also looking forward to a Royal Navy inspection with the15th Long Eaton to be held at Trent lock. Very Much a first for me. I will get someone to write about it for a future edition.
Also running over this week end will be the Inspire day ( Flyer elsewhere) for young people from the East Midlands the age range being 14 -25 we only have 10 places allocated to this event so again it is important we fill our quota from across the age range. Having met a lot of very cape-able and able people who fit the age range this should be no problem. P e r h ap s o n e of t h e participants will put a piece in K.Scout in the future. Please do not let transport to Hinkley be a bar as we will arrange where required. Can I remind District Commissioners of the October 2nd Dc meeting and ask for any agenda items to be sent to Jaquie in plenty of time she will be in touch this week with a cut off date. East Midlands Region
I am also looking forward to the Cub Ready Steady Cook competition in October. I understand Tracy has lined up some very talented Judges. Perhaps we ought to challenge Girlguiding in 2011! RDAS days
An early heads up In the next twelve months the East Midlands Region has prioritised three further key areas for development. These are: Young Leader Scheme Young People and Decision Making Executive Committee Support
The regional development & support days this year are over the week end .
And are all areas we will be looking to improve upon with your help and support. More to follow as the year progresses.
GSL/DC 20th November Development and support 21st November.
Yellow card.
There are a limited number of places available so if invited please either confirm your attendance promptly or decline to let someone else have the option. Inspire
I think it was mentioned in most districts at the beginning of summer. If not I make no apology for reminding All, please take the trouble to re read it. It is there for your benefit as much as our young people. If “yellow card” means nothing to you please ask your Leader GSL,DC or me as it is important.

Free Grant Finding Facility The Derbyshire County Council website has a free funding search facility, called GRANT net. The system is devised to assist community and voluntary groups, sports and other clubs, schools, social enterprises and small businesses to identifying funding opportunities for specific projects. This could be particularly useful to community groups, seeking new sources of funds, as other budgets become increasingly tight . The information on the GRANT net page has been improved to help the public use the system. The website link is: http://www.derbyshire.gov.uk/ community/lottery_funding/ grant_net/default.asp

PEDAL POWER PUSHES JOE TO TOP AWARD
Joseph after receiving his first place Trophy presented by The Lord Mayor of Manchester
Scoutcars are home made pedal go karts which are constructed using old push bike parts. Over 60 scoutcars were at the finals from all over England. Races consist of a mixture of individual and team events for all ages ranges in the Scout movement. Joseph Coates came first in the Cubs individual Final and his colleague Toby Newsome also came third in the same final.
In only their second year of competition Calver Scout Group have come away from the National Scoutcar Races held in Manchester on July 3rd with a clutch of awards.
Calver were joined this year by Hathersage Scout Group to enable several teams to compete in Cub, Scout and explorer Scout sections.
Obi racing Calver’s Kart no 55 in the Scout Section races
Cameron giving 110% in Calver’s Ka No
In addition to these individual awards we also received two 3rd place awards in the Cubs team event and the Cubs relay Grand Prix. The Scouts were also lying second in the Scout section relay Grand Prix with about 4 minutes to go when a mechanical failure of the steering mechanism brought their race to an abrupt end.
And the winner is….. Scouts and Guides from all over the UK were lollipopped to the post at Peak 2010 competing to mark the launch of www.skowt.com at Chatsworth. Tasked to be as creative as they could with 35 jumbo lollipop sticks competition entries ranged from the simple to the elaborate. 103rd Derby Scouts created a working umbrella whilst Cottingham Guides came up with a replica of Chatsworth House and gardens with their bundle. Amongst the 30-plus entries was a winningly simple design that carried its Group to victory in the online vote; 1 st Melbourne Scouts created a giant Swiss Army Knife with all its tools and blades carefully carved from the lollipop sticks.
Rob Gregory, Founder and Director of Skowt.com, the new and easy way to manage your Group or Unit online, said of the „Peak PenKnife‟ entry: “I think it was the cool simplicity of this design that won it for 1st Melbourne Scouts, they should be really proud of their work and their keenness to be prepared has definitely impressed me!” 1 st Melbourne Scouts will receive over £300 worth of prizes from competition Sponsors Blacks Leisure Group and Go Outdoors at an event which we hope will include some free training and advice for Leaders in the South Derbyshire District. Details to be confirmed. To see all entries and to find out more about Skowt, visit www.skowt.com/peak2010.
Dave MacAlister The ACC (Scouts) view on the Scout Section Across The County
Like many of you, I have now got things back together post Peak – borrowed items returned, kit put away and caught up on all those e-mails! What a splendid camp it was – packed with activities and many friendships made and renewed. Being on the International Team was certainly an experience to remember, never a dull moment and a hive activity all week. We have had glowing reports back from the charities that supported us – Save the Children, Sightsavers, Cafod, Tools for Self Reliance and Oxfam. The letters and comments made by our young people on the Cafod and Save the Children bases make very interesting reading – I am truly amazed at the values and understanding of world issues that our young people have.

Chief Scouts Gold Awards Mark Tarry presented 52 certificates on the Tuesday evening. We had over 150 in the International Marquee to celebrate their achievement. The atmosphere there was really alive – not sure which District made the most noise in cheering their recipients! The next presentation will be at the County Offices in Matlock on February 6th 2011.
Global Challenge – Roll of Honour tops the 200 mark! We presented over 75 Global Challenge badges on the Thursday evening at Peak 2010. The Roll of Honour now stands at 236.Keep the names coming in; we will have the RoH on display at future County events. “Chilly Challenge” Our new camping challenge – for January next year needs a pennant design – go to the

Rampage is a competition open to Scouts & Guides based at Drum Hill County Scout Campsite.

Date is set for Sunday 10th October and you should all have received entry forms by now – also downloadable from the County website. We have now started to receive entries – limited this year to 24 Troops. We have some new activities for this year and I feel sure it will be a no th e r very p opul a r competition. Our next ADCs meeting is set for 29th September at Alfreton Fire Station – 8.00pm . We will complete the Outdoor Challenge Guidance Sheet – we made a start on at our July meeting. Please make sure your District is represented at this meeting.

Chesterfield Explorer Scouts 2010 sees Chesterfield district celebrate its 100th year as an active Scouting district and also as the 2nd biggest district in the county. Explorers in Chesterfield are thriving with 4 exceptionally active
units supporting nearly 80 14 – 18 year olds. Each of the 4 units are highly successful in managing to retain the young people in the transition from group level Scouting to district run units. They all provide extremely active and varied programmes ranging in activities from zorbing (running in a ball on water!), water skiing in November to bbqâ€&#x;s in the snow whilst also providing the good old staples of pioneering, caving and climbing. Having such strong active units with excellent leadership teams is an obvious bonus for the district in ensuring we keep

the young people in Scouting, but with it comes the difficulty of ensuring that there are spaces available for all the 14 year olds within the district who wish to continue. This is the problem that Chesterfield as a district is now facing. With the number of people wanting to volunteer their time slowly decreasing it is getting harder to find the adults required to run some of the activities and programmes these active inquisitive individuals want to do. Chesterfield opened their 4th unit Helios last September to support the demand for places from the young people. The unit has proven to be a complete success with nearly 20 young people attending regularly. The other 3 units Canotila, Centaurus and Draco are each doing equally well. So much so
that it is looking like a new unit may need to be opened to help support Centaurus who have a r e g u l a r attendance of 30 explorers, they cannot physically take any more young people into the unit. With each of the explorer units having 3 to 4 groups which filter into them it is not practical for the units to support each other placement wise, although the option is available to all 14 year olds to join any of the 4 units the majority tend to join the unit that their group filters into. With the shortage of leaders the opening of a new unit is in question which means that thereâ€&#x;s a real possibility that we are going to lose these potential next generation of leaders. If anybody is looking for a new challenge within their Scouting career and would like to come and be an explorer leader or even give their time as an assistant explorer leader in and around Chesterfield with some exceptional young people please contact either Martin Platts D i s t r i c t Commissioner: 07889194301 or Claire Malam District Explorer S c o u t Commissioner: 07837107170.
On Jamboree
et
The Intern
Although ScoutLink aims to be as safe as it can, please remember the basic rules of safe internet usage, especially when your youth members are taking part in JOTI.
Jamboree On The Internet is designed to allow Scouts and Guides to make contacts around the world without the expense of taking part in an International Jamboree. Taking place on the third weekend in October every year, JOTI is now an established event on the Scouting calendar.
The best way to take part in JOTI is to use Internet Chat (IRC) through the dedicated Scouting and Guiding network, Scoutlink (http://www.scoutlink.net). This network is set up to be as safe and secure online network as is possible, being constantly monitored by a large number of Leaders and other Scouting/Guiding volunteers from around the world. To take part in JOTI, you will need to connect to the ScoutLink network. This can be done in several ways: Using a dedicated IRC client, such as mIRC for Windows. Once configured, this will give the most user-friendly way to connect and chat. Using the java chat on ScoutLink at http:// irc.scoutlink.net. Using this
Simply double click on the name of the channel you want to join, then you will be connected and can start chatting.
you will be able to connect and chat, without having to download and install your own software. If you try the two options above, but can't connect because of a firewall, then you can use the webchat at http://www.scoutlink.ch. This is a much more basic way to chat than the other two options, but should work for everyone! Once you are on the ScoutLink network, you can type "/list" to see all the channels, or chat rooms, that are open. These are usually named after the language that is spoken on that channel (so, to chat in English, you will want one of the #english channels).
Do not allow Young People to exchange phone numbers or home addresses with other JOTI users. If you wish to exchange badges through JOTI, then use a Group or PO box address for such exchanges. Re m e mb e r t ha t if methods to contact each other off ScoutLink are exchanged, then future contact will be moved away from the safety of the ScoutLink Network. For more information about JOTI, and safety on the internet, take a look at the WOSM website for JOTI - http:// www.joti.org
arth E n O t a h g? So W n i h c a c o e Is G In the Beginning Geocaching is a term – coined in 2000 – that describes the enthusiast hobby of locating a treasure somewhere in the world with the help of a GPS-enabled device and GPS coordinates that are listed online. Geocaching combines locationbased gaming, social networking, treasure hunting, GPS navigation, and outdoor recreation. The hobby was started in 2000 by a GPS enthusiast, Dave Ulmer, seeking to test the accuracy of the improved GPS signal available to civilians. Ulmer shared the coordinates of his first hidden geocache online. Mike Teague found this geocache and shared his experience online. The online chats spread, and soon, 75 other caches were hidden around the world. One was found in July by Jeremy Irish, who shortly thereafter, founded Geocaching.com as the first portal for the hobby. Dozens of press articles and millions of online conversations later, Geocaching.com is the world‟s largest location based gaming portal. Geocaching around the World Today, more than 1.4 million geocaches have been hidden, and found by more than 4 million p e o p l e w o r l d wi d e . M o r e specifically, the United States and Germany lead the world in this activity, with the Czech Republic, Canada and the United Kingdom following. Geocaching continues to grow in popularity across the UK – and is being embraced by more and more Scout Groups – even becoming part of the Scout Section‟s Navigator Badge. This
has also seen a rise in Scout Group‟s placing their own geocaches around Scout Campsites and Scout HQ‟s – local exam ples being Walesby, Spitewinter and 1st Chatsworth Scout Group all having caches located around their areas. The Rules of Geocaching 1. If you take something from the cache, leave something of equal or greater value. 2. Write about your find in the cache logbook. 3. Log your experience at www.geocaching.com.
Geocache Types There are many types of Geocahes, but below are the most common in Derbyshire:
Traditional Cache This is the original cache type consisting, at a minimum, a container and a logbook. Normally you‟ll find a tupperware container or ammo box filled with goodies, or a smaller container (“micro cache”) that contains only a logsheet. The coordinates listed on the traditional cache page are the exact location for the cache.
The Contents of a Geocache A geocache always contains a logbook or logsheet for finders to sign. Larger geocaches may also contain items for trade. These are generally small trinkets. If someone takes an item, he should leave something of equal or greater value in its place for the next geocacher to find. A geocache may also contain Trackable items. Trackables are geocaching “game pieces” bearing a tracking number - a unique series of letters and numbers – that allows geocachers to follow the items‟ real-world travels on Geocaching.com. Some of the most popular trackable items are “Geocoins” and “Travel Bugs®.”
Multi-Cache A multi-cache (“multiple”) involves two or more locations, the final location being a physical container. There are many variations, but most multi-caches have a hint at the first location that helps one reach the second location, where there is a hint to the third, and so on.
Mystery or Puzzle Caches The “catch-all” of cache types, this form of cache can involve complicated puzzles geocachers will first need to solve to determine the coordinates. Due to the increasing creativity of geocaching, this becomes the staging ground for new and unique challenges.
