As part of our 50th Birthday Celebrations the Group held a Social gathering for old and present Leaders and Committee Members and invited guests at the Scout Hall on Sunday 17. July 2011. Around seventy guests attended including the Isle of Man’s Lieutenant Governor Adam Wood. Our guests were welcomed with either a glass of wine or a fruit cocktail, before the Group Scout Leader Julian Ashcroft, made a short speech, detailing some of the Groups achievements over the past fifty years and thanking past Leaders for their involvement and present Leaders for their on going commitment. This speech as followed by a speech by the new Scout Association – Isle of Man President Peter Kelly, who gave some more details of the Groups history.
After the speeches the guests enjoyed a hot and cold buffet put on by our Executive Committee.
Our next 50th Birthday event is our group Camp over the 23. – 25. September 2011.
Hopefully a few photos should appear here soon.
