The construction of the building is concrete footings, brickwork around the base of the walls, then timber frame on top with cladding to form the shell. Of this, the footings are now in, and the brickwork is underway.
Meanwhile, much of the Group's energy is going into getting ready for the Donkey Derby on Saturday - apart from those Scouts and Leaders involved in winning the District Camping Competition last weekend (well done to them and good luck for the County competition you've won the right to enter)! - oh, and the people involved in the very successful Totton Carnival procession and stall.
Lots of Donkey Derby programmes have been sold now at a range of venues over the last few weeks, so we're doing well for bringing some cash in before we start. The site, equipment, tents, food, tombola prizes etc. are all coming together, as a result of a lot of hard work from the organising team.
And now, we've just heard today that Adam Lallana is confirmed as coming along to open the Donkey Derby for us. We're hoping to see lots of Saints fans joining the crowds to watch the donkey racing, enter the tombola, bet on the races, eat the burgers, buy the cakes etc. The weather forecast is looking good, so we're all set for a great day.
