PARENTS - PGL drive etiquette

After a change in PGL's rules for entering and leaving Boreatton Park I thought it was time to review etiquette;

Please only start your journey along the drive when there is no vehicle coming the other way.

The mini layby is only for emergency (ooops I got that wrong) use, not for zooming down the drive while another car is coming the other way and pulling in at the last minute. Last Friday I saw 3 cars trying to cram into the small space and not succeeding.

Please, NEVER drive on the grass, this really upsets PGL as the tyre ruts spoil the look of their entrance - they are a business after all.

10mph please - boring but Boreatton Park is a place for children after all and they do tend to pop up Harry Potter like out of nowhere.

Finally if you are late then the buzzer is an option but bear in mind that PGL effectively shuts down in November so you could have a long wait as there won't be anyone answering the intercom.


Please remember that we are probably unique in the whole of UK Scouting - PGL charges us £10  a year rent, gives us free electricity and use of their facilities.  This means that as Group Scout Leader I don't have to badger you all for sponsorship, money, bagpacks and all the extra effort that other Scout Troops have to put in.  Good eh?  Lets respect PGL's rules and we won't have to fundraise £200,000 for a new Scout hut.
