The County Cub Quiz, whihc was postponed before Christmas, has been reschdeuled for Friday 11th January 2011 from 7pm to 8.30pm in Frankfield Community Centre.
The 40th Cubs Christmas Party in Leisureplex has been rescheduled from Monday 20th December 2010 to Monday 17th January 2011. The decision has been taken on the grounds of safety, due to the poor road conditions caused by the snow and ice, and that temperatures have now dropped below zero again. The 40th Cubs will resume after the break on Monday 10th January. We would like to take the opportunity to wish everyone a happy and joyful Christmas. – Niall & Conor
