15 July District Chairman Resigns

I am sorry to have to announce that Gary Rycroft has resigned as from last week. He was re-elected on Tuesday at the AGM but due to discussions held on Wednesday he has resigned from that date.   

We have held an emergency executive meeting and appointed Frank Rice as Chairman.  He will act in this post for the present time but has set up a search party for us to find a permanent new chair as he does not
want to do it full time with his other pressing duties in Scouting.    

I shall be away for 10 days from Thursday 17th July - 27th July.   If you have any queries or problems then Debbie Smith 01524/32019, or David Wilkinson 35556, are available to help.   Frank is also there if you need him, or of course any other member of the District Team or Executive.      We will get over this, and I am sorry it has come at the end of our successful year, just as we are breaking up for the holidays.

Copies of the District report have been sent to all groups in one way or another - I have more to hand out if you want them.    The draft accounts were mistakenly handed out at the AGM - we have fully audited accounts and we will get copies of them to you as soon as possible. 

I do wish you all a good holiday and I particularly wish all the 16th Morecambe scouts good journey to Kandersteg and the Lonsdale Explorers and 5th Lancaster bon voyage as they go to Canada.  Good travelling to you all .   

More messages will come out as soon as I know more.

Pat Griffin,  D.C.
