On February 8th 1950 Mrs. Robinson formed a Committee of local women known as Hawke Sea Scouts Ladies Auxiliary. This was rather a unique structure for a Scout group - New Zealand scouting in the 1950s was only for boys and female involvement was often limited to the role of Cub Pack leader - [[Akela]]. They were the "financial backbone" for Hawke Sea Scouts, they fundraised for Hawke giving them many opportunities to become the troop they are today. | On February 8th 1950 Mrs. Robinson formed a Committee of local women known as Hawke Sea Scouts Ladies Auxiliary.
