Pony Trekking and Canoeing

Yesterday was the second of our divided activity days with every group rotating to have a go at either ghyll scrambling, canoeing, pony trekking or shopping. The night before we had a wide game where the objective was to take a spinning lighted object (to burn off the extra energy from all the sweets they have bought!)

Weather in the morning was wet but much improved by the time dinner was ready, which consisted of a cooking competition! – the delights of chillis with philadelphia cheese and pancakes without egg were enjoyed by the leaders judging. The night stayed fair and all the scouts sat round a small fire and sang some songs.

Tonight is our last night so we will be spending today clearing up the site, after taking a visit to the windermere air show followed by the obligatory fish and chips.

Thanks for all the comments, we have been reading them out at flag down, much to the embarassment of some!

Once again, thanks for tuning in so regularly, it’s quite tricky doing this on camp (power/connection/other jobs to do) but it allows me to skive from the washing up in the leaders tent,

Until tonight,

Yours in Scouting
James
