    Beckford Peg

    A big thank you to everyone who helped at the Scout’s ‘Beckford Peg’ incident hike competition – once again it wouldn’t have gone half as well without your help.

    There may have been a few squashed Scouts on the bypass if we hadn’t have been there in the morning to guide them across…

    Running a base called ‘marshmallow gun firing’ in the afternoon was much more interesting. Thanks to Adam and Nathan for being targets. Apparently the ‘5-second rule’ also applies to marshmallow ‘mellets’ fired at you…

    There are some new photos below as well.

    St George's Weekend - thankyou

    . A big thank you to all of you that helped out at some point over the weekend. Some of you managed a few hours, others the entire weekend; but it was all appreciated!

    We had one hectic weekend:

    • Running bases for the Scouts night hike on Friday – not finishing until 1AM the next day. AND then having to put up tents at Hesley…
    • Helping set up activities on Saturday morning.
    • Marshalling the car park after lunch
    • Taking Beavers/Cubs/Scouts around the activities in the afternoon, or helping to run activities as a Young Leader
    • Marshalling the car park in the evening.
    • And finally helping to clear up1

    So once again a big thank you to all, it was greatly appreciated by everyone in Don District – especially the Scouts, who without your help wouldn’t have had a night hike at all!!
