The slab for the new Scout Hall was laid by the Lions Club in October 1986.  It was opened debt free on 9 April 1988.  All voluntary labour was used.  Scouting movement was strong and Don Sutton was the local leader for 40 years.  Three Leitch children were involved in Scouts and Beryl was catering cook.
