Jamboree Fundraiser

Over the weekend of 19th and20th August , Lilly McMahon from the Greytown Scout group ran a firewood raffle from the Pain and Kershaw carpark in Martinborough. The money earned will be used to help Lilly get to the Scout Jamboree in Renwick at the end of the year.
The winner was Anne Ames, drawn by Keli from Mitre 10, and Lilly would like to thank Pain and Kershaw and Mitre 10 for their help and use of the woodsplitter. Like all good scouts, Lilly was very much involved in helping her father Brendon cut , split and deliver the firewood.

Lilly says ” everyone was so generous and one lady even gave me a bag of blanket badges from an old Jamboree  in Feilding, which is amazing”. She would like to thank the people of Martinborough for their friendliness and support for her venture.
Lilly is Martinborough’s only Scout, and her father Brendon is a leader with the Greytown group. If anyone is interested in Scouts, contact tony.allen@callplus.net.nz. Meanwhile, good luck to Lilly and her goal of getting to the Jamboree.
