Well..... everyone has different reasons for joining scouts.
For starters, there are lots of activities to get involved in, such as climbing, camping, canoeing, archery, pioneering etc.
On
the regular Tuesday nights we regularly play new games, both inside and
out, as well as doing more challenging things. Recently, we have built
a camera out of little more then a cardboard box; built a working radio
out of a few bits of wire and a couple of basic components; lit fires
(with no paper) and cooked a meal..... Have a look at our program to see what we are doing this term.
Every term we try to have a weekend camp (see the gallery
for photo's from the latest ones) and in the summer we go away for a
week. Last year it was a week on the Kennet & Avon Canal on a narrow
boat. This year, a weeks camping in the New Forest. Our camps are
always a mixture of traditional camping and exciting activities.
Most of all its the scouts that make it most fun - and that's what its all about!
Come along on a Tuesday, or contact one of the leaders. Try it - you don't know what you're mising...
