Queen's Scout parade at Windsor

While most of 3rd Ware attended the parade in the town, some others were lucky enough to attend the Queen's Scout parade in Windsor.

Marching to St. George's chapel for the Queen's Scout service

The service was relayed out to those outside, the speaker was Brendan Cox, his wife Jo was an MP who was murdered by an extremist last year. He spoke about how Scouting has shaped his life and the Great Get Together weekend that he has brought about to get people involved together.
A very special day for everyone that was lucky enough to be there.
And especial congratulations to Dano for achieving his Queen's Scout Award, the first 'home grown' 3rd Ware Queen's Scout since the Senior Scout Troop of 1956!
