V, I time-series photometry of the new Milky Way satellite recently discovered in the Bootes constellation (Belokurov et al. 2006 ) was collected at the TNG, WIRO and Loiano telescopes and used to search for variable stars.

The distribution of periods coupled with information on the evolutionary status of the system derived fromthe
