Each section has very successfully provided sessions in the hLrt. hikes and artivities elsewhere and of course, the much-enjoyed camps. To achieve all of the above. we are very fortunaie to havè a first-ratè tèèm of Volunteer Leader5, led bv an ey¢ellent Lead Volunteer Group. The LVG has taken the very successful step of dividing up the previou5 GSL function5 and involving the other Volunteers much more in the whole pro￿$$. Sheet Scout Group is indeed fortunate to have such a fine bo(ly of Volunteers. l am also pleased to report that the Scout Hut is in good repair and providing a very good fatility for our sections as well as our daytime~tenant" SteppinB Stone5 Play8roup. The rent from the playgroup is vltal financial contributor to our daily running costs for the buildin& as well as helping us put fvnds away against future repairs and updates to the building. l am also very grateful to the 8oaid of Trustees for their invaluable work in thè ba¢k8round administration of the Group. I want to make particular thart￿ to Luc, our T￿3$y￿r, together with some very able financial assistante from Mina. Luc took over as Treasurer at a time. when, although we were never short of funds. our financsal sltuation was very disorgantsed. coupled with our previou5 bank Suddenly shutting OUT account5 down. Luc's energy and expertise at that time and ever Since has resulted in Sheet Scouts now havin8 fit-for- purpose new banking arrangements and being on an inflnitely sounder financial platfom. With all asperts of Sheet Scouts appearin8 in rude health, we look well placed to anticipate another successful year ahead.
