Colin,

Ok, as you can see from my address I'm in the UK, however, since I'm
after some related info thought I'd ask it under the same thread.

I'm in the middle of planning a Scouts Own for the Troop I lead around
St. George.  Our camp falls over the usual celebration we hold in
Coventry so we want to do it on camp.

Has anybody got any good info about the history of St. George.  I have
the info sheet from Scout base but this is limited.

If you wish to send attachments, please E-mail.

Thank you
Scott Wiggins
