Winter camp (click here for pics)

Last Saturday we had our first camp of the year at Scarisbrick Hall campsite. 17 cubs and scouts attended withe some of the cubs attending their first camp. Tents were pitched and then they had to prepare their bolagnese and potatoes for cooking on the fire. We ate tea then sat and chatted around the fire before bed. We awoke to ice on the tents so sub zero camping badges for those that don’t already have them! Click on the title for pictures
