$900 for Jamboree Expenses Successful Gala Swells Scout Fund

The very successful gala day held by the combined Scout groups in the Central school grounds raised just on $900 for the jamboree fund to send four Gisborne Scouts to the world jamboree in Japan later this year.

Brisk business was done at the well stocked stalls, and everybody bought up large as well as spending money on the other attractions.
