Patrol Leaders Training Camp

Tuesday, March 7th, 2006
Scouts

On the weekend of 4th/5th March, the Scouts section held its first ever Patrol Leaders training camp in the freezing cold at our HQ.

The Scouts enjoyed 24 hours of challenges (bridge building, egg drop challenge, the Helium Stick amongst others), learning sessions, both practical and classroom based, the proper way to light fires (and a few cheats) amongst other activities and an excellent trip to Megabowl.

The extreme sub-zero temperatures which left drying tea towels board-solid also disrupted many of the Scouts and leaders sleep, didn’t diminish in any way the excellent spirit and team work of the weekend. Congratulations to Joe C, Alex, Harrison, Cameron, Irie, Joe R, Miles and James for all completing the course and to Rich, Jon and Charles for their assistance over the weekend.
