This year’s Remembrance parade and service will be on Sunday 10th November. Meet at the Leas Cliff Hall at 10.20am in full and smart uniform. Dress warmly. This is the one single event that we expect all members to turn out to.
Please note the finishing point is left of the Town Hall (the cinema) in Guildhall Street, towards the main road (depending on where we are in the parade order!) – parents are warmly invited to remain with us for the duration of the event – please stand with the general public, not with us in the parade.
Tell us you’re coming via the Parent Portal email link.
Information from the District
Clothing
If the weather is wet then dark coloured overcoats should be worn. If the weather is dry then it is recommended that layers of clothing be worn under uniforms. This is a high profile public event so we want to look as smart as possible and create the right impression of Scouting and respect for the event.
Dismissal
After the Service the whole parade will proceed along The Leas, turn right into Longford Terrace and then right again into Sandgate Road. It will then continue back along Sandgate Road to the Town Hall. The salute will be taken at The Town Hall as the parade splits into two sections. The District will be in the section that turns left into Guildhall Street. Dismissal will be in Guildhall Street.
Preparations for the day
It is important that the young people are ready, in all ways, for the event. Young people should have something to eat before they come out, particularly if the weather is warm and dry.
