Thank You Mark Standing

Report Date 03/12/06

The latest Hayling Scouts Book Sale was not only a successful event but also a very special one for Mark Standing our Book Sale Manager. After 13 years, 25 sales, sorting in excess of 75000 books and raising over £14000 for the Hayling Scouts Mark has been allowed to escape and spend more time on other hobbies.

Mark was presented with an engraved goblet by Philip Blosse the Group Chairman who praised his achievement and thanked him for outstanding support to the young people of Hayling Island over many years. Phil also confirmed to those in attendance that the Hayling Scouts will continue with the book sales and that we are working on how best to manage these in the future.
