Cubs had a fantastic time at the Auchengillan Outdoor Centre Cub Big Birthday Bash this weekend!
From start to finish, it was full of fun, adventure, and plenty of smiles. The Cubs threw themselves into all the activities, camping and hopefully made some great memories.
A huge thank you to Auchengillan staff, all the leaders for their time, effort and dedication in organising and running the camp, it wouldn’t have been possible without everything you do!

Tents, walk to the park, blind game, zip line, snack at the Cafe, parachord bracelet, egg drop challenge, wide game collecting wood, building, lighting and cooking over a fire as well as campfire songs, learning about garden birds, making bird feeders and mini pioneering catapults. 6 tired beavers and 3 exhausted Beaver/Cub Leaders 🤭
