1st GRIMSBURY GROUP EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Message from the Group Chairman
Many thanks to all that came out to collect with Santa's Float. We have raised £400.20 which will be match funded by Tony and RAC to the tune of £350, making a total of £750.20.
Thanks also to all the bag packers at Sainsbury's, here we raised £638.00 which we hope will also be match funded.
Thanks to the hard work with fundraising, we are able to pay the capitation fee of £25 for each of the young people and leadership team. which is due at the end of January. Capitation is our annual membership fee payable to the Scout Association to cover insurance and the running of the Association
Best wishes Jackie
