Volunteers recognised for outstanding work with awards ceremony and dinner at Burghley House on Tuesday 10th April.
Award winners and their guests enjoyed a tour of the grand house before dinner and then settled down to an evening recognising their efforts with a range of awards.
Awards were presented by Regional Commissioner Paula Evans, County Commissioner Robin Wright and Burghley House Director Miranda Rock; and included the Silver Acorn and Bar to the Silver Acorn.
Robin Wright said:
"Thank you so much to our award winners for their ongoing service and their exceptional contributions to Scouting in Lincolnshire. The more opportunities to get involved in Scouting that we can offer young people in the county, the more exciting life experiences they can enjoy - making a real difference to the next generation and beyond. It is an honour to be able to recognise our award winners for their outstanding contributions and of course a big thank you also to all volunteers across the region who give their time and efforts to Scouting."

Charity Quiz - This quiz has been designed and written by the Youth Shapers. It’s purpose is to be used as a starter/game activity in a scouting meeting with the idea being that to participate all scouts would make a small charity donation.
What Trustees do, really makes a difference. Lincolnshire Scouts are looking for a new Trustee for a 3 year term starting from September 2025. We need your experience and wisdom to help us make sure we’re well governed and managed.
