Ed Shuttleworth of 1st Knysna Sea Scouts said they were happy to be associated with the prestigious launch of two exciting new Knysna business ventures, namely Berlow Furniture and The Old Cape Smokehouse.
"Funds raised in aid of the 1st Knysna Sea Scout group amounted to just in excess of R1 500, which the committee plans to use for painting the exterior of the newly plastered walls of the Scout Hall on George Rex Drive," he confirmed.
