At the December meeting of 1st
Cromarty Scout group committee
which was held at the home of the
chairman, Bill Mahon, the policy of
paying half of the membership fee for
all boys was discontinued. Beginning
in September 1986, parents will pay
the full fee (1985$14.) for the first two
boys in the family and half the fee for
all boys was discontinued. Beginning
in September 1986, parents will pay
the full fee (1985-$14.) for the first two
boys in the family and half the fee for
any other members in the same fami-
ly. The other half will be paid by the
group committee. This will help
eliminate the problem of low funds at
registration time and free more
money for other projects.
Ruth Laing gave an account of the
scout group committee workshop
which she attended in Stratford in
November. A get well card was sign-
ed for the Cub Akela, Rhea Cameron,
who has been ill. Further plans were
made for the Father and Son Banquet
which will be held in Cromarty

same day.'
The next meeting will be held
January 16 at Carol Ann Scott's home.

the cab fare for customers needing a

establishment.
In addition, Jack Stuck said the
