We'll be taking pre-orders via the added Plant Sale page, which can be collected on the day, or we can deliver (G64 postcodes only) for a small additional fee.

For online orders, a separate 'Plant Sale' page has been added to our website, which will detail 'expected' stock. It will also provide an integrated payment function - no need to wait for payment links like last year. Pay options include debit/credit card or PayPal.

We expect the page to have stock lists available by the end of April, so come back then for online ordering, which will be available up to 9 May.

CAMP 2024
FRIDAY 31 MAY - SUNDAY 2 JUNE 2024

Whithaugh Park, Newcastleton

This year's Camp is truly a joint event in more ways than one.

Junior & Company/Seniors will both be attending Whithaugh Park for a weekend camp. And in addition, boys and leaders from the same sections at the 268th Glasgow BB Company (based at Springfield Cambridge Church in Bishopbriggs).

The limited numbers currently at Company/Seniors meant a week's camp was not viable and after the success of last year's joint Juniors Camp with the 268th, we decided to extend it to Company/Seniors. And with that we have c.30 boys and 10 staff attending, it'll be a busy weekend - river walking & geocaching for (Juniors) and fencing and raft building for (Company/Seniors), plus zip line (see picture), swimming session, plus access to all other outdoor spaces and self-supervised activities, it truly will be a memorable weekend.

Fingers crossed that the sun shines, just like last year's camp!
