EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment in Scout Group history, set in Lostwithiel, Cornwall in October 1992. The image showcases the joyous occasion of a harvest home celebration held within the newly constructed Scout Headquarters, nestled within the old cattle market. As attendees eagerly gathered to witness this festive event, their generous harvest gifts were auctioned off by the esteemed Jack Payne. During this memorable week known as "woggle week" several scouts proudly displayed their woggles on their fingers for this special photograph. From left to right, we see Gareth Hamley exuding confidence and determination, followed by Chris Luke radiating enthusiasm and passion for scouting. Simon Allardice stands tall with his scout cap perfectly placed atop his head while Oliver Udy's beaming smile reflects his genuine love for being part of this tight-knit community. The photographer behind this remarkable shot is none other than Jonathan Barker whose keen eye captured not only the faces but also the essence of camaraderie that defines scouting. Neckerchiefs adorn each scout's uniform alongside badges symbolizing achievements and dedication to duty. This nostalgic glimpse into Cornish scouting heritage serves as a poignant reminder of how important these headquarters are to fostering friendship and personal growth among young individuals
