Scouts washing cars:

Explorer scouts raise money for Switzerland trip

Thanks to Will Matthews from Cowes Buccaneers ESU for this update. Ed


Cowes Buccaneers Explorer Scout Unit recently ran a car wash to raise funds for a trip to Switzerland this August.

Taking place at Cross Street Car Park, from nine in the morning until four in the afternoon, the group raised over £250 by washing cars. This will help fund the trip which includes activities such as Mountain Climbing, Canyoning, White Water Rafting, Camping and many more taking place at Kandersteg International Scout Centre.

Organisers would like to thank the Isle of Wight Council and Corries Cabin for making the event a success.

The group have big ideas to raise funds including a row across the Solent!

If anyone would like to donate to the trip, please email Will Matthews: [email protected]
