Ask the family, neighbours and friends to bring a trailer or ute to remove and take home as much straw and manure as you want. Great mulch for the garden. Swap meet rubbish cleanup, Sunday November 16 meet approximately 3pm at the showground main gate. These two fundraisers are worth approximately $850 to our Group. Please contact Julie before October 5 if you can help out in any way. Our Group cannot afford to lose these opportunities, so please help us out. All details on meeting arrangements and what to bring will be advised closer to the date. Group LeaderOur Group is still in desperate need of a Group Leader. If you (or someone you know) would be willing to act as a liaison between the fabulous members of the Group Committee, Group Council and District Council please let a leader know. Remember we are all volunteers - every little bit helps. New UniformSoon in 2004, Scouts Australia will be introducing a new uniform. This uniform is expected to be available from Snowgum from mid-2004, but you can still wear the old uniform for the next five years as part of the changeover period. More detail on the New Uniform is available at the Scouts Australia Website. |
