Minister Martin was welcomed by Leaders, Scouts and Cubs. Group Leader Mark Stacey and Scouter Marian Dullaghan filled her in about the activities undertaken by each of the sections within the group. They also gave her a short tour of the Den and the adjoining garden and a lesson in how to light a fire with flint and steel.
