They were given cash donations as their share of the proceeds for taking part in the Rotary Club of Seaton’s annual festive postal service.
Seaton Rotary President Gareth Davies handed over a cheque for £100 to Jane Johns the leader of the 1st Seaton Guides. She also collected a cheque for £100 on behalf of the 1st Seaton Scouts.
Gareth was accompanied by Terry Grimsley, the Seaton Rotary Club’s treasurer.
Both the 1st Colyton Scouts and 1st Beer Scouts each received a cheque for £55 for their assistance with Christmas card deliveries.
A spokesman for Seaton Rotary Club told the Midweek Herald; “We look forward to Christmas 2018 when we shall do the same again and thank all our local residents for their support.”
