Banbury’s District
Commissioner, Brian Sargent, presented Max Homer, Alex Mobbs and Dan
Bolton with their awards infront of the Troop’s other members and
their families. They will now attend a prestigious County
Presentation in March.

Scout Leader Andy Green said, “Max, Alex and Dan have worked
really hard for this award. To gain it they have given up many
hours of their spare time, and performed valuable tasks in the
community. The Chief Scout’s Gold Award is highly sought after
and something which will aid them as they seek college or
university places, and apply for jobs in the future. It will
give all three a head start over their peers as they have shown
today that they have the skills any employer will be looking for
in them tomorrow.”
District Commissioner Brian Sargent added, “It was really good to
be able to present these awards. They represent lots of hard work
over a period of several years and these three Scouts are to be
congratulated on their achievement. ”. |
To pass the award Max,
Alex and Dan completed a series of badges including attempting new
adventurous activities, taking on various leadership roles, completing
community work at Adderbury Lakes, and various other life skill
challenges.
