New Scout Den

Set in the ideal surroundings of Wai-te-ata Park, the new headquarters of the Wai-te-ata Scout Group were opened recently. The group is now responsible for the park, and as one speaker said at the ceremony, it was doubtful if any scouts in New Zealand had a more beautiful location for their buildings.
