Our Show: 1st & 3rd Houghton Regis (Bedfordshire)

Bedfordshire, Counties, Our Show
Scout Radio joined 1st and 3rd Houghton Regis Scouts to talk to them about radio and help them produce their own radio show.

Some decided to interview the leaders to find out more about the scouting programme whilst others carried out a Scout survey to share with listeners the most popular scouting activities. One group decided to share their happiest and funniest memories from their time in Scouting and we even had two sporty Scouts providing commentary on the game of Dodgeball that concluded the evening.

Our Show: 1st Winchcombe Scouts

Gloucestershire, Our Show
A few weeks ago 1st Winchcombe Scouts from Gloucestershire were contacted by their local Community Radio station, Radio Winchcombe, about making their own shows.  The Troop Leadership turned to Scout Radio to help out and one of our team got together with the radio station and ran a Troop evening giving the Scouts their first taste of radio. The audio below is made up of a few samples of what they recorded that night: [soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/playlists/21464491" params="color=ff5500&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%" height="450" iframe="true" /] Scout Radio continues to support them as they work towards their first full program on Community Radio.
