Breakfast on the Green - Sunday 14 March 2021
Maungaraki Richmond Scouts are holding their Fifth annual 'Breakfast on the Green' fundraiser, Sunday 14 March 2021, 9:30 to 12:30.
Come to the green space on Dowse Drive across from the Maungaraki shops for pancakes, sausages and bacon. We'll have fresh lemonade and homemade baked goods. More than 20 families have contributed to a HUGE rummage sale featuring toys, books, housewares, kids clothing and much more. There will be facepainting and older scouts are organising games for younger children.
Weather forecast is looking great, so bring the kids and come to the Maungaraki Green on Sunday morning for food, fun and to see what Scouting is all about.

0% ... It is complicated
