1st Hunstanton Scouts and Guides

In 1988 i joined the 1st Hunstanton Scouts and Guides, as a parent rep, this led on me to being secretary, when i first agreed to become secretary i visited the present secretary Margaret Allchorn at her house for a meeting, imagine my shock to be introduced to the chairman who was Amy Reynolds my old DS (Domestic Science)school teacher who scared me to death.
However,because of the pressure of the old school of we don't do it like that i left in 1990, as i was also pregant as well.
In 1991 i returned to the movement as an Assistant Brownie Leader, but because of lack of committee members i ended up on the committee of 1st Hunstanton Scouts and Guides once again in about 1995 as Secretary.
In this time I took part in fundraising etc, as time went on there became less and less committee, and the burden of looking after HQ and Fundraising increasingly fell on Susanne and Myself.
Due to lack of committee and desperation Bob became the Treasurer in 2002.
Eventually it became more and more difficult and we felt increasingly that new blood was needed.
In May 2010 Susanne, Bob and Myself came off the committee.
