Leaders from the Lower Burdekin Scout Group, Chris Berkery and Narelle Timm, were presented with a generous $2000 cheque by Kerry Lowing, the Secretary of Bluey’s Thrift Shop, on Sunday 5th Jan 2025, at the Uniting Church in Home Hill.
This is the second generous cheque that Bluey’s has presented to the Lower Burdekin Scout Group. The previous donation in 2024 was used to provide scout camps and activities, leadership training for the Youth members, and small First Aid kits for all Scouts, along with some equipment.
“We’ll use some of this very money, which was generously donated from Bluey’s Thrift Shop, to purchase paint so we can brighten the outside of the Den, update some of the group camping and general equipment, and design a group ‘sun safe’ camp shirt,” a very grateful and enthusiastic, Chris says.
This donation will be used to provide 2025 Christmas meals for the homeless and lonely in the community, as well as reduce the cost of membership, camps and activities for the youth members and their families.
“The community supports our Scouts so now we will do this as another way to support our community,” Chris stated.
“On behalf of all our Lower Burdekin Scouts and their families, we would like to give a big thank you to Bluey’s Thrift Shop, for their continued support and all the great work they do in our community.”
