After what seemed to be a very short time, Daniel achieved his
Queens Scout. As I said during his presentation, Daniel is the
youngest Queens Scout recipient in the Unit's recent history
completing all the requirements before his 17th birthday. The big day
was held on 13th March and was attended by all Daniel's family and
friends. Daniel had been a stalwart of the Unit for the 2 years he
had been a member, being the Unit's treasurer most of his time on
Unit Council. During this time he kept the Unit on the financial
straight and narrow, never giving the Intrepid Leader any cause for
concern.
The Intrepid Leader does the intro's to get the show on
the road. Daniel thought it best if he hid behind the
candles.
