With over 50 jobs throughout the areas yesterday, Scouts continued their efforts in helping homeowners return to normality after the devestating floods earlier this year. Works today included fixing fence lines, cleaning walls in homes, weeding and removal of dead plants in gardens.
Many Venturers and Rovers are working hard this weekend due to their desire to give back to the community. As Hayley from Warragul Venturers explained, she attended the Hoadley Project because "...to help out other people affected by the floods". Kelsie from Craigieburn Rovers said "this gives me the satisfaction of helping other people out"
All participants have continually expressed their enjoyment with the activity and would take up the opportunity in the future to participate in a similar activity.
Teams in Charlton have worked extensively to begin preparing the riverside for a new boardwalk being installed by the local community.
Tomorrow, Scouts will be running an Easter Egg hunt in Rochester, Murrabit and Charlton with the local community as part of the Easter Festivities in each town.
On Sunday afternoon, some participants will be returning home to take part in local ANZAC Day services and some will be remaining at Murrabit & Charlton to participate in local services.
