Report Date 18/04/12

Matthew Wells, Nathan Bond, Hakan Ustabas and Daniel Allen from Eagle Scout Troop were all presented with their Chief Scouts Gold Award, the top award of the section by Nigel Valette, District Commissioner for Havant Scouts.

In addition to completing a number of challenges including outdoor adventure, camping, community and health, the Scouts also undertook a personal challenge of pulling a traditional Scout Trek Cart for 15 miles around the Langstone Harbour in under 4 hours. They actually managed a record time of 3 hours 37 minutes!

On presenting the awards, Nigel congratulated the Scouts on their great achievement and also thanked the Leaders and Parents for their help and support over many years.  The photograph shows the four Scouts with Nigel (left) and Ed Harrison the Leader of Eagle Troop.
