12 Scouts and 4 Adults from the Snowdon Troop spent the weekend of 24th – 26th October at Downe Scout Activity Centre. We were promised horrible weather on Friday night and Sunday, but it turned out to be pretty good all weekend.
Activities included Pedal Go-Karts, Rifle Shooting, Archery, Leap Of Faith and Ariel Trek. The Scouts also made Pizza from scratch and cooked them in “Dutch Ovens” on a fire. The boys spent a lot of time running around in the woods chasing each other and, I believe, the plentiful Deer !
We were woken on Saturday morning at about 5 am by some interesting noises – initial diagnosis was Wild Boar, but the site staff suggest Badgers !
Thanks to Sarah Turner for giving up Friday night (after a bad week at work) to run a Rifle Shooting session !
