Breakfast on the Green - Sunday 1 March 2020
Maungaraki Richmond Scouts are holding their fourth annual Breakfast on the Green fundraiser, Sunday 1 March 2020 starting at 9:30am. Come to the green space on Dowse Drive across from the Maungaraki shops for pancakes, french toast, sausages and bacon. We'll have fresh lemonade and homemade baked goods, a HUGE rummage sale and a raffle. There will be facepainting and older scouts are organising games for younger children on the grass.
Bring the kids and come to the Maungaraki Green next Sunday for food, fun and to see what Scouting is all about.
