Sponsored Boating

Despite a very (very, very) wet morning on Sunday, lots of Sea Scouts turned out for our sponsored boating.  The weather improved through the day, and we also had a few visitors to our stand at the Testwood Lakes Great Outdoors Open Day.  Thanks very much to everyone who organised, helped out or turned up to take part - we sold a few more raffle tickets, and made some money on the refreshments, before we even start counting the money raised by the boating.  We also spoke to quite a few people about potentially joining or volunteering to help us.  So a good day out all round.

We also had a Group Exec meeting on Monday including a brief review of building progress and finances.  We've had some more money coming in from a range of sources, so we are now at a total of £16,200, even before the weekend's activities, towards our target of £20,000.
