Popular Dinner
The annual St David's Scouts' and Cubs' father and son dinner is a very popular event and this year proved no exception, judging by the number attending the meal.
Two awards were also presented after the dinner.
Special guests at the dinner were the four Gisborne Scouts who are going to the next Jamboree, to be held in Fiji. They are, from left, in front, Stuart McKenzie and David Campbell (St David's) and, at back, Julian Tilley (Kaiti Sea Scouts) and Alex Evans (Takitimu).
A presentation of flowers was made to Mrs Sheila Scott for her services to the group by Sixer Archie Stephens.
Sixer Glenn Flockhart also made a presentation to Mrs Nancy Poi, the new Cub leader.
