Kingfisher Beaver Scouts

Camp Visit

The Beavers arrived at 12 p.m. and our first job was to take them on a guided tour of the whole site, and one sharp eyed beaver found a pigeons egg on the ground. After their packed lunch they followed a string trail while the cubs were cooking on open fires. Several of them missed Badger and were quite concerned that now she was helping cubs she wouldn't be coming back to us after camp. The afternoon was spent visiting all 6 bases set up for the cubs to do their athletes badge and many out did the cubs in their fitness. Another game followed by dinner (see photo) and then flag break with the cubs before the parents arrived to join in with our camp fire. Our scout leader Neil led the singing and encouraged everyone to join in which came as a shock to some of our newer parents. The beavers left the site at 8.30 very tired but having thoroughly enjoyed their taste of camp!

Dinner on Saturday was based on Italy so of course we had pizza, (Apparently Squirrel cooks better than most of the mums!)

 

Not everyone could keep up with the actions

Even the adults joined in

Fee fi fiddle i dee (I think)

And the one about grey squirrel made them all laugh.

Many thanks to Falcons for letting us visit them and showing us what camp is all about And thanks to Neil the scout leader for the lovely camp fire. I hope that they didn't sing them for too long when they went home!
