Scouts about
First Wimborne Minster Scout Group held an open day on 18 September as part of their centenary celebrations.
Past members were welcomed back including Eddie Wood from Melksham, who was a Scout in the 1940s, when the late John Loader was Scoutmaster.
The Minster Green was transformed into an activity area with a climbing tower and visitors could also learn how to make rope, woggles and badges. The next celebratory event is a community one. The Rotary Club of Wimborne assisted by the Scouts will plant 5000 purple crocus bulbs in the grounds of the new Waitrose Store on Saturday 2 October.
