Group Camp | 22/06/2008
The weekend of 13 - 15 June 2008 was our cowboy and indian themed Group Camp.
22 Cubs, 19 Scouts, 7 Explorer Scouts and 10 adult Leaders camped for the whole weekend and 22 Beavers and 2 further Leaders visited on Saturday afternoon.
In advance of the camp each Section decorated a section of a totem pole - which we erected on camp. It looked fantastic!
During the weekend the Beavers and Cubs made indian headbands and painted their faces and the Scouts wore cowboy costumes. The Leaders were a very mean looking bunch of Sherriff's!
Activity bases included tracking, corn bread, rodeo (lassooing, tin can alley, horse shoe throwing), dream catchers, head bands, spitoon and water pistol showdown.
On Saturday the Explorer Scouts built a fort and on Sunday the rest of the group attacked it with water soaked sponges.
On Saturday evening there was an American style camp fire with songs, stunts and challenges.
Everyone really enjoyed the camp - thanks to all those who put effort into organising it.

The Groups AGM was held on Friday 6 June 2008.
The meeting went well and our District Representative (Ex-DC Jim) praised the Group for all it's hard work.
After the formalities we had a Race Night, which was great family entertainment.
Thanks to our committee for organising such a fantastic event.

Bag Packing | 02/06/2008
OK, so it’s not the most exciting event on the Scouting calendar, but bag packing raises an awful lot of money for the Group. It also brings Scouting into the public eye and lets people see that the movement does still exist, that youngsters are willing to work out in the community and that our members are smart, helpful and proud to support their Group.
This year we were at Morrisons at Meltham on Saturday 31 May.
We raised £680 for one days work!
A big THANKYOU to all those who attended.
