Ardeer Thistle Girls Under 14's

2023-09-10  •  1 comment  •  Ardeergirlsu14's  •  Three Towns

The under 14's girls team is newly established.  It already has 22 girls who have joined and the numbers are continuing to climb.  Due to the team being newly established we need to ensure we have the essential items for the girls to feel they are truly part of a team/club. 

We hope to use the funding for:

22 x Training strips £660.00

22 x Rain Jackets £572

We will be creating fundraising events to make up the additional costs.

Educational STEM / ECO Trips

2023-09-08  •  No comments  •  Lesley Richardson  •  Three Towns

A variety of trips throughout the year - Science Centre / Whitelees Windfarm / Dumfries House / Museum of Rural Life - Farm Trip / Vikingar / Educational Science shows to visit the school - Sense.

Dependent on which stage goes there are approximately 60 kids and 1/2 buses needed for each trip.  Just now we are over £250 for a bus and per head for most of these trips it is 4/5 pounds so it is approximately £500 a trip per school year stage.  So any contribution for buses and activities would be amazing. 

£1,000
Ready for action.

Paddle boards

The unit currently has single person paddle boards but these are unsuitable for younger persons who would not be able to operate them. The unit seeks funding to purchase large paddle boards which hold 6 to 8 young persons. This would allow more young persons to try paddle boarding.

We do not need to buy any safety equipment as we are well stocked with them. The equipment is stored in a locked garage at the scout hall.
