This event is one of our oldest and while it has changed from the admission for a family was bring a firework, we hope to keep it a village tradition. We have again teamed up with Pyrotex Firework Champions to create a great show for you to enjoy and also we have our catering team in full flow to keep out the cold with some great food and drinks.

The event will start as soon as you enter with quality catering available straight away.

GUY FAWKES GUY COMPETITION, This is open for anyone to enter. Guys must be in place by 5:15pm and can be delivered during the day after 12 noon on day of the event. The judging will take place at 6pm and there will be a prize for the winning guy.

6:30pm Firework display. Silent fireworks do not exist but we are sourcing the quietist ones available for our younger guests to enjoy the night at a earlier time of 6:30pm. It will be a short display but we hope its a family experience that they will love.

7:15 Display. This is our full on display with some crowd pleasing effects. This display is using the reduced noise fireworks to minimise the stress and disruption for the local livestock and residents. It has been designed to please everyone and certainly is not the cheapest option so we do hope you enjoy the show.

Quality catering available this year will be hot pork baps, served with apple sauce and stuffing, 6oz gourmet burgers, sausage rolls, jacket potatoes, hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream, along with tea, coffee, sweets and toffee apples.

What a load of Woggle!!!!

If I had a £1 for every time I heard this I would be telling the Apprentices… You’re Fired!

For a start all of our sections are headed up by fantastic leaders, none of which look like Bear Grylls 🙂 however they all have the same drive and determination of a SAS soldier and adventurer!

But this is still a common misconception amongst those not connected to the Scout association, it’s all middle-aged men in shorts tying knots and singing ging-gang-goolie (what ever that is anyway?)

I cannot think of anything further from the truth, we are a forward thinking and modern Scout group.

Today’s Scouting could be as much about enriching mental health, developing modern day skills, like coding or website design as it is to knowing knots and sharpening pocket knives. The leadership team at Rolleston are looking at expanding its current leadership team across all sections and we think you have the skills we are looking for.

If you’re still here and reading this far down, it seems you’re already showing a significant interest in joining us. So who are the team already based at Rolleston Scout Group? Well everyone is a volunteer, just like you, they all have busy family lives and jobs, they all understand the demands on modern life. They are no different to you…. We were all in your position once, on the outside looking in.

We have a wide and diverse team at Rolleston that bring different skill sets to the group, we have company directors, mechanics, city bankers,heart surgeons, engineers, teachers, medical researchers, builders, aerospace technicians, coach builders & stay at home parents to name just a few occupations.

They all bring such a different viewpoint to the group and its this attitude that makes us such a dynamic and over subscribed Scout Group in the area. Yes we have leaders that climb mountains, run marathons, complete obstacle courses for fun, its not so much what they do, but more that they are inspiring the young people to push themselves beyond their believed limits. There are no restrictions on religion, race, gender or ability we are fully inclusive.

Q – Is it all just hiking and camping?

At Rolleston our young people do almost everything yes getting out camping and outdoor pursuits is a big part, but we do not restrict ourselves to what has been before, we set new goals.

Q – If I show an interest, am I suddenly the Scout leader with loads of children under my responsibility?

No you will compliment our already established team of leaders and assistants, of course later on you may well want to take on more responsibilities and leadership roles.

Q – Will I have to complete loads of training and checks?

All our Adults in Scouting are checked through the Government DBS system, you will also have to undergo a few hours training in child protection and safeguarding. However you will always be with more experienced leaders, not chucked in on your own.

Q – Will I have to wear a uniform?

We are a uniformed organisation and our section heads will be in uniform, as a general team member it is not absolutely necessary, a number of our leaders just wear either a polo shirt or hoodie to show they are part of the leadership team or like our fellow leader HRH Kate a nice roll neck sweater 🙂

So what do you need to do?

If you want to come along and be part of a dynamic energetic team of volunteers then drop us an email in the first instance, perhaps telling us a little about yourself (Its not a job interview!) and outline why you want to join our team. We will then arrange a drop in session at one of our evenings so you can meet some our team. Its great fun and I guarantee you will learn new skills.

We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for reading.
