GSL AGM Report 2021
I am going to show you the video we did for the District AGM last year, it was an overview of the previous 12 months - pre lockdown in March 20! So I thought it might show the new children and parents to the Group what to expect when things get back to normal and to remind the rest of us what we missed and hope to do again next year. This has been another difficult year in so many respects, but most of the Scouts of all ages have stuck with us and we have had some amazing visitors and activities on Zoom, the leader team have been totally brilliant and the kids resilient and that’s what it’s all about for me.
A few words of thanks –
As ever my most important role at this event is to say thank you – we are a fairly large team at 1st Thurstaston and the success and popularity of the Group is largely down to that team, so I would like to thank them each personally.
My support team of Deputy Group Scout Leaders, Andy, Brian and Caro
The Section Leaders, Andrew, Andy, Brian, Caro (Beavers & Cubs), Jayne, Liz and Rich.
The Assistant Section Leaders, Alan, Beth, Claire, Helen, Gayle, Gemma, Ian, Jon, and Paul.
The Section Assistants Alastair, Diane, Gaynor, Iain, Matt, Matty, Mel.
The Young Leader Team, Alice, Ben, Dan, Henry, India, James, Lucy, Luke, Nat, Nia, Sam and Skye. It might sound like a lot of names but we have 152 children currently over the 7 Sections we operate each week. You will note that some of the team have several roles and quite a few have other roles outside of the Group on the District Team as well.
Thank you all for everything you do week in week out throughout the year be that on zoom or in person you are all amazing.
Over the last year a few leaders have sadly left the Group and we would like to thank them for everything they did for us: Sarah West, Kate
Harrison, Krista Herbert, Sarah O’Connor, Dan Callaghan, Ed Rudd and Jenny Bradshaw.
Thank you to Earle our Chair, Vicky our Secretary and Lynn our Treasurer, and all the other members of the Group Executive Committee Debbie, Gillian, Steve and Wendy for supporting the Group so well in the background, Dawn Rudd has decided to step down after many years of dedicated service and support on the Exec, thanks Dawn. We would like to invite any parent who can give us some time to join the Exec, we meet three times a year and provide the back up support to the Group and Leader team. Please let me know if this is something you could be interested in.
Finally, my thanks to our parents for your unwavering support and all our Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Young Leaders. Together as a team we make 1[st] Thurstaston the great Scout Group that it is today.
