And that's summer out, but an exciting autumn lies ahead… and 10 days to go until the Great River Race (21st September!).

This year our leaders and supporters of Petersham and Ham Sea Scouts are entering two boats; Valentin and Phoenix 2. They will be rowing the 21.6 miles from Millwall in the East to Ham House in the West.

You can join us or cheer us on from the riverbanks (both equally necessary), but if neither is your cup of tea, please can we ask for your support in sponsoring our crews so we can continue to provide exciting boating and land activities for our young people.
