3rd Orpington Scouts New Year's Party

Scouts from the 3rd Orpington Pathfinders ring in the New Year with some rough and tumble games followed by a hot dog feast

In 1961 whilst still in their old HQ, Scouts from the 3rd Orpington "Pathfinders" ring in the New Year with a party! They start with the rough and tumble of a game of British Bulldog followed by some much needed refreshments - which the intertitle decribes as " beautifully cooked and tastefully served" with more than a touch of irony! The hotdogs are quickly followed by home made meringues leaving many happy smiling faces.
