One of the features that make the Blog a potentially exciting format to use, is the ability of the readers to post their own comments on the entries…
I will point out – that it is not an excuse for anonymous name calling and abuse… All comments will had to be approved by an administrator before they can be seen. This will also reduce the amount of SPAM that usually end up in the comments of an unmoderated blog…
Please feel free to comment of the posts, but be nice 
So…
We have run a few events this year which have all been successful.
• We planned and organised a sponsored Abseil off Dudley Castle in September, which was brilliant and everyone who attended had a great day – look out for that again in 2011.
• and for the rest of the year we have a Skills Camp booked in November, and Christmas Camp booked in Wales in December, so we may be doing a bit of Sledging
Our plans have worked, and we are thriving, I’d be interested to hear if any other Explorer Units are having the same success…
Catch you all soon

Once you have a blogging account, you may want to put your posts into a Category – for Example ‘Sandwell Explorers’, making it easier for people to find related posts. If no suitable category exists, contact me and I will create it for you
