And as far as I can tell it now is! However, this has lead to at least two bookshelves full of files and ringbinders full of paper and quite a lot of space taken up on my hard drive! What all this does mean is that everything is now quite organised (I wouldn&#8217;t like to go so far as to say totally organised as I&#8217;m not quite that efficient!) and I can put my hands on the right document quite easily. Of course, with looking more into our history, the amount of documents and photos have grown quite a lot, but now we at least know our own past.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Bearing all that in mind, I&#8217;ve just started to transfer all the Scout&#8217;s details onto their new record cards. Earlier this year, the badge schemes were slightly altered and new record card were created accordingly. One good thing is that now the kid&#8217;s personal details are now on a separate card, which can follow them from Beavers to Cubs and onward. <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The trouble is, we haven&#8217;t been too good at filling the current cards in <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"smile_embaressed\" src=\"http:\/\/spaces.live.com\/rte\/emoticons\/smile_embaressed.gif\"\/>.<br \/> So this means that once all the info is copied and when we start back, I&#8217;m going to have to speak to all the Scouts individually and make sure all their details and their badge work is up to date. Hopefully this should mean that a few more badges are awarded and that we can ensure that the Scouts who are close to being awarded one will get what they have worked towards.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Once we&#8217;re all up to date, then we must ensure that these records are kept up to date. After all, there&#8217;s nothing worse than a Scout working hard for a badge and never receiving it because the Scout Leader isn&#8217;t very organised!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the last couple of years, I&#8217;ve been trying to ensure that all our Group&#8217;s records and documentation is up to date and accurate.
