Take nothing but memories
Leave only footprints
Kill nothing but time 💚

This week our Cubs and Scouts spent two nights camping at Woodhall Spa Scout Campsite. Lots of fun was had, despite the first rain downpours in weeks happening while we were camping!
We did some pioneering, some rope bridge making, and we even found time to help District Lead Volunteer Rob rebuild the dead hedge in front of the reflection area - though that very quickly turned into a competition of who could bring the biggest sticks 😂😂!
And we most definitely did not let the fire ban stop us having a campfire. A traffic cone, fairy lights and some sticks collected by Akela’s 3 year old son made a perfectly good facsimile!
Special shout out to Rob Johnson who made sure that the pitch we wanted to use was ready to go before the children turned up 🥰
And well done to our Cub Team Leader Akela Pete who managed to gain his Nights Away Permit during this camp, meaning that we are now able to plan more camps for the future!
And the best achievement of the week? Every single Young Person on camp went home with huge smiles on their faces after yet another fantastic camp.
