Good old Sincerity Courage Generosity Service

Today, my mum went to SCGS to collect a bunch of tshirts i had ordered awhile ago.. they were part of some fund-raising for the SCGS endowment fund, and organised or at least run by the sc prefectorial board. I first received word of this sale a few months back, forwarded to me by a friend, and my first thought was wow, amazing, it reached me! and also that they were having such a funky sale thing.. so i emailed the email given, and a few days later received confirmation of my order.
A month ago, I was told that my order was ready, and there were three dates i could choose from to collect the shirts.. I missed all three due to forgetfulness and exams, and amazingly i got another email reminding me to collect the shirts at ANOTHER date, arranged for those who had missed the first three dates..
And so today, my mum collected the shirts cos i had to attend the service learning course, and i was again surprised to find that it had gone without a hitch.. my order wasnt screwed up, there was no confusion although it was my mum who had gone, which led me to several conclusions.. they must have had crystal clear records (both of orders and our particulars), which from my experience in scouts, is really hard, considering they didnt have direct contact with any of us, and they must also have had a huge amount of orders.. which meant alot of liasing with the shirt suppliers, and with all us old girls as well.. i was like.. whoa, this was a really large-scale project, and really well done, very efficient and buyer-friendly at that..
and so, pleased with my new tshirts, happy with the chance to keep in touch with SCGS and delude myself that im still there, and $30 poorer, i sent my first ever email of commendation! haha hope it makes someone happier or encourages someone (: glad to see the girls getting the learning opportunities from running such a thing..
