OOOh - hello! We also won rag hockey once at London (& I got the National recitation award [smug] ).

Taught the local cubs rag hockey the other week.

Still got all the Juco & Covie badges, & still think the boys song was better than the girls! Were your boys & girls separated?

[Jodee]

Yes! Jucos and Covenanters, that takes me waaaay back!

[Milliways]

Did you get to a London rally Jodee? Where were you a Juco (I used to be in Wokingham, Berks).

[Jodee]

Umm, I think so, Milliways, I was in Croydon, so not far to go for me (racking brains!).

[sanders]

I just found this thread while googling "covenanters." Small world! I was in Hainault Jucos and Girl Covenanters, and also went to New Milton camp. Seaford, too.

I have made a Facebook page on the Covenanters Boys Club. It was a wonderful Club that introduced me to the real God.

I was a Covenanter in Storrington, West Sussex. I went to the Heronwater camp for many years. I also earned my Golden Arrow award and won the National table tennis competition in my final year in Covenanters. A great group with so many happy memories.

I know this post is really old... My mum used to run the Juco girls camps at New Milton, I went with her from a new born till a teenager.

Yes. I have a golden arrow too. My parents ran the Wolseley and later the Plymouth Plymstock groups so Covenaters was very much part of my life growing up. Also at Coventer camp I made a commitment to follow Christ which I have never regretted. Camps I went to were Brixham, Selsey, Yeovil and Ringstead Hall (Beccles). Always went up to London for the national rallies which was s weekend away for our groups.

I also won the national scripture recitation award! I was in a milwaulkee brace that year!
