1st Dural Scout Group recently held their Annual Reporting night where the Committee reported the events of the last year.
Steve Wallace, Deputy Region Commissioner, and Councillor Warren Waddell, representing the Mayor, were present and praised the Group for another successful year.
After the formal reports were presented, Group Leader, Simon Edwards, announced the youth members who were the top achievers for the year and had exceled in the “Scout Award System”. Councillor Waddell congratulated each in turn. The outstanding achievers were Archie McKnight (Joeys), Lucas Vriens (Cubs), Jack McDonough (Scouts) and Alexis Taylor (Venturers).
The Queen’s Scout Award is the highest award in the Venturer Scout section and carries an outstanding reputation within Scouting and the Community world-wide. Alexis Taylor joins the list of over 40 Queen’s Scout recipients at 1st Dural since 1963.
Each year only a few Venturer Scouts achieve this prestigious award, which is presented by the Governor and Chief Scout of New South Wales, as a representative of the King, at Government House. Alexis is looking forward to the ceremony later this month.
Dural Scout Group has vacancies for Girls and Boys from 5 to 25 years. Joeys (5yo), Cubs (8yo), Scouts (12yo) and Venturers (16yo).
