The Scout Association of Malta recently held its annual celebration of its founder Lord Baden Powell's birthday with a get-together at the headquarters in Floriana. Known as Founder's Day, this is the time when the association recognises those who have contributed to fulfilling the aims of the movement in Malta.

This year, the association also had the task of choosing the 'President's Group of the Year' - an idea put forward by President George Abela, during the planning of L-Istrina. The Scout Association raised €12,324 and the Victoria Scout Group was honoured with this prestigious award.

Various other honours and awards were bestowed upon num-erous members for their dedication to the movement over the years.

The gathering was addressed by the Chief Scout, Kenneth De Martino, who thanked everyone for the hard work and augured that the movement will continue to grow in the coming years. For more information, visit www.malta scout.org.mt.
