1ST STEWARTON BOYS’ BRIGADE captain's comments
Well our Company is now well started after
the summer. We have had a busy time so
far with all sections being extremely busy,
and attending both Company and Battalion
events as well as the Company Section
taking part in National competitions.
Our overall numbers are sitting about 120
which is a fantastic amount, testament
to the teamwork of the staff who deliver
the programme, not just on the meeting
nights but a lot more besides.
Our Anchor Boys have so far attended
the Battalion dressing up and also a trip
to Ayr Beach Park in September. On 4th
November the Anchors went to Fiona’s house
where the boys had games, marshmallows,
hot chocolate and a wee heat from the
fire pit - great fun for all the boys.
Junior Section have attended a fair amount
of Battalion events which include treasure
hunt at Dumfries House, ten pin bowling
competition, Unihoc, swimming gala and
athletics afternoon. We have also had a
visit from RNLI where boys got a very
interesting talk and demonstration on
water safety. We also had a sleepover in the
church hall followed by a Battalion cooking
event run and hosted by Stewarton.
Climbing w
all at D um
Company Section and Seniors have attended
a few Battalion events which include Alton
Towers visit, swimming gala, athletics day,
an activity evening at Dumfries House to
take part in climbing and assault course.
We have started our National campaign
with chess, table tennis, badminton,
5-a-side and Masterteam. Our Seniors
had a trip to Nandos and the cinema.
We are continuing to offer a progressive
programme to help boys stay on and
enjoy the BB right up until they are 18.

We had 5 of our Seniors doing the
Duke of Edinburgh Silver Expedition
during the September weekend. 30
miles over 3 days and 2 nights – hiking
and camping while carrying all their
own equipment including cooking,
food, tents etc. Great experience which
will result in 4 Duke of Edinburgh
Silver awards later in the session.
