Members of the 1st Medowie Scout group who attend Wirreanda Public School accessorised their school uniform for one special day, and wore their Scout scarves to school to commemorate the day, and to also raise the profile of Scouts in the area. Dennis Conroy, the District Scout Leader for Port Stephens, told News Of The Area, “I was impressed with how many current members took part in the Port Stephens area.” “It’s great to see our young members wanting to celebrate Scouts, and encourage their school friends to give it a go.” If you’d like to give Scouts a try, the 1st Medowie Scout Group hold their meetings at the Medowie community hall. Scouts meet on a Tuesday night at 6:30 -8:30, Joeys on a Wednesday night 6-7pm, and Cubs on Wednesday 6-7:30pm. Interested people are welcome to come along to the hall, introduce themselves and see what Scouts has to offer.
