RN Inspection Passed
Last night we had our 18 monthly RN inspection and passed to retain our RN recognition.
We were very pleased to be visited by Lieutenant Commander Karen Cahil who is Staff Officer Scouts for the Royal Navy.
She was shown around the boating compound and site for our proposed new location as well as our HQ during the day and then attended the official inspection in the evening.
All of the Scouts and Explorers turned out as well as Leaders from all sections, members of the executive commitee, members from the district and county as well as supporters of the group such as the Rotary Club of Canvey Island and Sainsburys.
The evening was started with a formal parade where Lieutenant Commander Cahill was piped aboard. Then a night of typical activities was laid on for the Scouts by the Leaders, assisted by the Explorers which were inspected and viewed by everyone attending.
At the end of the evening we fell out with a closing ceremony and then the scouts were sat down to listen to Karen about how they had done. The good news was given and Karen thanked all the leaders and supporters for the great job they do and presented Steve Fenn (GSL) with the pass certificate.
