Area Cleaning

Troop:
After thorough area cleaning today, me and the fellow year 3 have found a few items that were left behind on the grandstand despite instructions to do area cleaning. The items found are namely-- 2 mess tins, One fork, One green Tote Bag, One roll of Comms Cord, One aluminium foil and One Red coloured water bottle. The owners of these items, the items are now behind the grandstand safely, but if still unclaimed by next Thursday, they will be thrown away, so please come to claim it quickly.
I would like to take this chance, too, to remind you guys to have a sense of discipline and consideration for other people. Nobody stepped up to ask for a time extension when instructions for a 3 minute area cleaning was given, although the timing was clearly not enough, given the number of lost and found items. Also, many people were caught slacking too when most others were trying to search for items on the grass patches or on the grandstand. The items that were found by Sir during the inspection afterwards too signifies how un-thorough the clean up was as there was still trash found on areas that even we think we didnt use, but in the actual fact, it was caused by the wind. Remember the quote "a Scout leaves a place cleaner than before"? It also means that we should be responsible for the whole area that we use, even if the rubbish left behind is not ours.
Finally, I'll just like to remind the troop again to take good care of your individual personal items, regardless if its wanted or not. For example, Bottles of condiments like Sweet Sauce and Soy Sauce and even packets of rice were found behind, and they were unopened too, so next time please dispose of them properly or just take them home if they are new. I hope that in future cooking sessions we would not have to help keep or help to take care of so many personal belongings already, so please take good care of them next time. Thanks.
