4th Carrickfergus Scout Group

On Friday 16th of October 30 cubs and 10 beavers set off to Crawfordsburn for a
weekend camp. The weather was great. On the Friday evening everyone unpacked in
their rooms, we had a little talk about our programme, a few games then bed.

On Saturday morning after breakfast we left for Cultra where we explored the folk
half of the museum. The sweet shop was well used as well as a varied pack lunch. We
then returned to camp to participate in a Jamboree on the Air where the cubs had the
chance to speak to other scouters in different countries by radio then after an
enjoyable tea we had our superheroes party then straight to our outdoor campfire
where the pack learned new songs. Everyone crawled into their bunks exhausted.

On Sunday after breakfast we attended Cubs Own at our
outdoor chapel. We then split for activities. These were sky
walking and crate climbing both expertly supervised by
wardens. Finally, we had our annual walk to the beach where
we built sandcastles and skimmed stones. After lunch a very
weary pack and leaders boarded the train for home.

My thanks to my leadership team and to the pack for
maintaining the high standard of behaviour which we are
known for.

Yours in scouting
