Mission Bay) small group tour of the region around Rome. The food and special places, generally off the beaten tourist track, made this a really memorable holiday. Supermarket shopping for a DIY dinner at Andreas beautiful family home being just one of the highlights. They missed all the dreadful weather you all had, but they didn’t miss a second of the Americas Cup despite technology doing it’s best to thwart them. They put phones in glasses for amplification, and ipads in roasting dishes and fretted and swore when the internet crapped out, which it did-- often. They were in spirit with you, late every night- to the bitter end! Coatesville Residents and Ratepayers September was a busy month for us with The Coatesvile Clean up with double the turn out from last year plus the “Meet the Candidate night which was a hugh success with the hall half filled UNTIL.....half the audience realised it wasnt a meeting to discuss a TV 3 program earlier in the week about a woman who it seemed was keeping more dogs than the law allowed. Once they all departed we got down to business with an overview of YOUR Coatesville Plan (copies available on cost recovery basis). The three candidates John McLean, Ross Craig and Peter Brydon, all spoke to support their potential roles as local board members and then answered set questions and questions from the audience. They were followed by Councillor Penny Webster who provided an overview on Zoning and subdivision plans for Coatesville. The following issues were highlighted on the night and we will be working on them with the local Board. Can we prioritize roading issues? What is the Coatesville Zone boundary? Could there be a dedicated area or building for representatives of fire police and ambulance, to make these more accessible to Coatesville? Who are the council contacts for animal welfare? How can we make boundary fencing part of a property compliance issue. We’ll do our best to respond to these in next month’s Chronicle. Happy People Let Go Of Grudges Forgiving and forgetting is necessary for your own happiness, as holding a grudge means you’re also holding onto resentment, anger, hurt and other negative emotions that are standing in the way of your own happiness. Letting go of a grudge frees you from negativity and allows more space for positive emotions to fill in. WANTED TO RENT Executive quality 3-5 bedroom homes for professional clients.

Kumeu 027 234 2473 Joseph Easley is honoured by the Prime Minister Tuesday September 10th will forever be remembered as the night the Prime Minister came to Scouts at Coatesville. An historic event when the Rt. Honourable John Key, Prime Minister and MP for Helensville was invited to present Joseph Easley with his Chief Scout’s Award. The evening had taken months of secret planning and preparation and the hall was beautifully set out with display boards decorated with hundreds of photos of the achievements and activities of Coatesville Cubs and Scouts. Photo displays going back to 2006 were complimented with old scouting uniforms, memorabilia and an amazing stage backdrop depicting an old fashioned scout campsite. The evening was designed as a “Celebration of Scouting” with emphasis on Scouting in Coatesville to be highlighted by the Chief Scout’s Award presentation to Joseph Easley. The plan was to celebrate the rejuvenation of Coatesville Scout Group from a low of 3 scouts and no Scout Leaders back in 2008 and to emphasise just what could be achieved both by Scouts, Leaders and the community. Cubs have always thrived at Coatesville but Scouts almost became extinct just at the time Joseph and several others were about to move from Cubs up to Scouts. The low scout numbers and no leaders forced several parents to step up, attend some courses and become leaders and thus ensure the preservation of the Scout Group. Since those ‘Bad Days’ the entire group has grown year by year and finally we now have children in all 4 sections Keas, Cubs, Scouts and Venturers. Joseph’s Chief Scout’s Award is the pinnacle of what a Scout can achieve and it highlights not only his hard work and efforts but also the commitment, enthusiasm, and time put in by our volunteer leaders.

Guests arrived from 6.30 to view the displays and Richard had specially made the trip up from Tauranga with his son Andrew (also an early Coatesville leader) so strong was his affinity with Coatesville Scout Group. This enthusiasm and support for Coatesville Scout Group was also highlighted by the number of past scouts and leaders who lent uniforms and memorabilia for our displays and by the fact that 8 of the 12 Coatesville Queen Scouts attended the evening. The “official information sheet” suggestion to get “the Best person” to present the award included famous sportsmen, council officials, mayors and MP’s. So it was jokingly proposed by our committee that we should invite our local MP... John Key. Rt Hon John Key awards Joseph with the Chief Scout’s Award Getting a positive reply stunned the committee, and the process was then set to reminisce with old friends and finally in motion to get a date that would work at 7pm John Key arrived in a two car for both parties. This meant a lot of motorcade. quiet planning and public secrecy with Phil Smith, the Scout Group invitations only being sent out a few Leader, met Prime Minister John Key at weeks in advance, but the response was the car door and introduced him to Joseph amazing with everyone enthusiastic and Easley. Both then escorted Mr Key to really keen to help. view the scout’s kitchen trailer and the Prime Minister John Key was cub’s activities before going into the hall duly introduced and spoke to the audience. to spend some time at the display boards He focused almost entirely on the children highlighting Joseph’s achievements from as he told us about his time as a Cub and Cubs through Scouts and the challenges Scout, the fun he had had and how his son and activities undertaken to earn his Max had also been a Cub and Scout. His Chief Scout’s Award. The Prime Minister speech ended with an hilarious account then viewed the other displays and was of him eating maggots and huhu grubs introduced to Cubs, Scouts, Leaders and on stage in Auckland with Bear Grylls Scouting Officials as well as speaking to from Man v. Wild. He then took questions many of the guests before the formalities from the Cubs and Scouts and this was the began. Also invited to celebrate Scouting highlight for many of the kids as they got in Coatesville were Coatesville’s Queen to ask the Prime Minister their questions. Scouts and many past Coatesville Scout Phil then invited Joseph Easley and Cub Leaders who had laid the on stage and read out his resume of Cub foundations of the Scout Group we have and Scout achievements culminating with today. Among the founding leaders his Chief Scout’s Award and then asked present were Rodney Swift and Richard Prime Minister John Key to present the (Hape) Goodall.

A Celebration of Coatesville Scouting John Key was presented with a Coatesville Scarf and everyone turned to observe the flag down ceremony before being invited to mix and mingle and enjoy the fabulous supper. Mr Key kindly extended his stay for an extra half hour to meet and have photos with all those who wanted before finally departing and leaving the scout group to reminisce on a truly fantastic evening. It was great for the Coatesville Scout Group to be able to unite for such a prestigious event which, we later learned, may have been the first time a Prime Minister has ever actually presented a Chief Scout’s Award. The evening also reunited a link with our Queen Scouts and past Leaders and some have agreed to help mentor Joseph and our other Venturers through their Queen Scout Award so hopefully we can get some more names on that Honours Board in a few years. We are also hoping that this event may be the inspiration that many other children can use to achieve the highest honours while with Coatesville Scout Group. We are always looking for help with leaders, activities, and events and are hoping to be able to use the publicity of Mr Key’s visit to grow our Scout Group so if anyone is keen to assist in any way please get in touch. phil.lesley.smith@xtra.co.nz John Key talks to some of our Cubs Speaking to...Sam Couch Cubs looking on from left ...Joshua Callendar and Kyle Maxwell Standing behind watching are Scouts Felix Glover-Clark and Harry Palubinskas Coatesville Queen Scouts: Back Row: Regan Pearson, Michael Hay, Andrew Bartley, Kris Bartley, (you know who!), Sarah Sutherland (nee Pennington) Victoria Arundel Front Row: Scott Hay, Martin Roest (8 of the 13 Coatesville Queen’s Scouts ...... absent on the night were Campbell Jensen, Grant de Leeuw, Garth Freeman, Laura Pennington and Marc Walker) The prime minister shakes hands with Jack Ringer.
