There will be NO SCOUT MEETING for this coming sat (17 March 2007). You have work hard for the Job Week and deserve some times for your school homework. Please use the Sat off wisely to complete the school holidays homework.

The Scout Group next focus will be our 85th Anniversary Celebration and 69th Campfire on the 14 April 2007.
Lastly, we did not meet the Group Job Week target of $20 000 this year. Hence we have to work harder for the last fund raising "Donation Draw" in May.
