Oldham's swimming and diving pools are threatened by closure.

Please sign the petition that has been started to oppose the closures. Our Scouts will be unable to access local facilities to gain their watersports badge with Probe Diving School if the pool closes.

Ten of our Scouts have recently earned their Photographer's badge with some excellent work over a number of weeks, culminating in some very high quality submissions for the final judging.

To build on these new found skills and to win both a trophy and a prize, we are pleased to announce the inaugural 20th Oldham Photography Competition which is launched tonight.

Entries are invited from all sections - not just Scouts. The photo must however be taken by the young person themselves and not by someone else!

The theme for this years competition is 'action'.

To enter email your photograph to [email protected] telling us:
1.   what the title of your photo is
2.   what camera it was taken with
3.   where it was taken
4.   what you like about it

The closing date for entries has been extended - to allow you to enter photographs taken on your summer hols -  to 10th September 2012. For more details speak to Andrew or email any queries to the above email address.

Get snapping and have fun! Good luck!
