Scout Annual Camp 2015
Scouts had their annual camp in SilverCross campsite, Wales.
This is some of the fun they got up to….
Slideshow…
Photos themselves….
Scouts Overnight Sail to Cobh
Scouts had a lovely sail + overnight stay to Cobh last weekend.
After a weather & route briefing from Robin we set off in fresh winds on Saturday afternoon. Conditions tested the nerve & reaction of helms & crew but all excelled and got there safely where we beached the boats outside Cobh sea scouts den.
After some fine gourmet dining in Cobh we retired to the den for the night.
Bright & early Sunday morning we rigged then drifted / paddled / towed out from Cobh into some perfect sailing conditions for the journey back to Aghada.
Brinny, March 2015
Scout section had their first camp of the year in Brinny.
16 scouts braved the gale force winds, driving rain and bitter cold.
These are some of the activities they got up to.
