Examiners were appointed to test candidates for several proficiency badges. The committee is anxious to provide the Troop with a Scout hut and a subcommittee has this matter in hand. The scoutmaster stressed the need of a Wolf Cub Pack for boys between eight and ten years, and the committee decided that if suitable arrangements could be made for a Cubmaster >r Cubmistress and a meeting place, the Pack would be established in the near future.
