This year started off with the promotion of scouts to the roles of Patrol Leader (PL) and Assistant Patrol Leader (APL).  Each PL, with the aid of an APL, leads a team or patrol of scouts week to week during the year.  It is a role with a lot of responsibility but also one with great opportunities.  This year Robert Kelly and Jamie Mann were both promoted from APL to PL and Dara Foy was promoted from scout to APL.
