When opportunities arise to support, develop, grow and promote your Scout Group you always say yes and do your best to make things happen as best it can ... and that is exactly what our wonderful Committee did when the opportunity was offered to host a Bunnings BBQ at the new Bunnings Melton East Store.

With a very limited amount of preparation time, between themselves the Committee found the time to organise equipment, set up a cash float, purchase products and organise a parent roster. Now, all they needed was the customers to purchase sausages as they exited the new store.

While the flow of customers was regularly steady, the weather was not on our side with persistent rain slowing down the sale of food throughout the day. However, the end result was that much needed funds were raised, our wonderful Scout Group was promoted and the parents all had a good time getting to know each other a little better.

Thank you 1st Ballan Committee.
