On 6 March, St Johns Wood Rover Crew celebrated the 50th anniversary of its establisment. An Anniversary dinner was organised by Russ Davie at the Ashgrove Golf Club, with well over 60 current and past rovers from across the 50 years in attendance.
While it would be difficult to name everyone that was there, there were SJW Rovers from across the entire 50 years.
One of the hightlights was the donation by the Crew (Presented by Russ) to the SJW Scout Group of $18,000 to assist with proposed new group den. These funds were raised through countless garage sales and catering at scouting events during the late 1990's and into the 2000's.
A great time was had by all, and great hopes were placed on the shoulder of the current crew members to keep the Crew going.
