My name is Kevin Reade (AKA Scorpion to my scouts), I am leader of 1st Gobowen scout troop in Shropshire England. We are hoping to complete the Global Challenge badge with our scouts and this Friday asked them what country they may like to contact a troop in. As we are visiting Kandersteg next year the scouts expressed that they would like to learn more about Swiss people, culture and your country and asked if I could initiate contact with a Swiss troop.

We live in quite a rural area of England, very close to the border of North Wales and would be interested in contacting a group anywhere in your country. We would like to exchange letters, photo’s and maybe a scrapbook and would incorporate this work into one of our troop nights. If you know of a group who have their own web site or I can contact a leader via e-mail I would be most grateful if you could share it with me. My scout membership number is 00337719 if you need to check my credentials with UK scouting.

Any help in this matter would be much appreciated,

kind regards, Kevin.
