Breakfast on the Green -- POSTPONED
Sadly, the weather forecast for 18 November is for rain and southerlies; not the best of conditions for an outdoor event. We have made the decision to cancel the Breakfast on the Green this Sunday and reschedule it for later in the summer.
The new date for the Maungaraki Scouts' "Breakfast on the Green" fundraiser is Sunday, 10 February 2019.
The RAFFLE will proceed as planned on Sunday 18 November.
Thank you to everyone who has purchased raffle tickets. The winning numbers will be drawn in the Scout Hall at 12:30pm. Raffle winners will be telephoned and arrangements made to deliver your prizes to you.
