After 5 years as a Leader’s Assistant then 10 years as the Beaver Leader of Philpott Beavers, Auntie Beaver (Wendy Hurd) completed her training and was presented with her ‘Woods’ on Thursday 8th July. After an afternoon of traditional party games and a lovely tea ‘Street Party’ style outside in the glorious sunshine Jackie Watson B.S.L. 1st Dartford presented Auntie Beaver with her ‘Woods’ in front of a hall full of Beavers past and present and all their parents. The Beavers gave her a booklet of self-portraits and a bouquet of flowers and then the G.S.L. of 1st Dartford Alan Warren presented her with the Gilwell Scarf as a Thank you for past help to their Group. A truly wonderful afternoon and a big Thank You to all who came and for the many Good Wishes & Congratulations received.
