As we come to the end of our Scouting year I’d like to thank you all, parents and young people, for your support especially over the last four months. It’s been different for us all, where possible some of us have been able to connect with the leaders on zoom Facebook and by email. We have really missed interacting with the members of the Group and leaders have found it challenging. Please stick with us and maintain your enthusiasm. We are working towards returning to the hut, taking into consideration your children’s safety as well as parents and leaders and will have a risk assessment to put in place. We were eligible and have received a council grant which has allowed us to waive the subs April to July 2020 and we are very grateful for this. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the leaders, committee and social committee members who volunteer on top of their day jobs. They showed great commitment and have stayed flexible during the Covid lockdown. They have continued to provide a program of activities for your children.
Adria our Group secretary is stepping back and I should like to thank her for her minute taking and supporting fundraising activities, if anyone knows someone who will take on this role please get in touch with Andrew. Enjoy your summer and we all are really looking forward to returning to face-to-face Scouting when we are allowed.
