No throwing apples! – Book reveals life of Sea Scout group
Have you ever wondered what really goes on at Sea Scout group activities, expeditions and annual camps?
A fantastic night was had by all the scouts, with lots of friendly competition between the various groups especially on the Go Karts track! The Scouts enjoyed a wide range of activities including archery, air rifles, go karting, climbing, crate climbing, trapeze , obstacle course, cave bus, backwoods cooking, fire lighting and many more include a bbq dinner. There was some very sleepy looking scouts at breakfast! A big well done for 5 members of 2nd Beccles sea scouts who all made their promises whilst hanging on the indoor climbing wall making the promise sign, what a memory to treasure!
Waveney Valley Scouts are currently out in the dark having fun at Eaton Vale, trying to fit in as many activities as they canWe caught up with one scout Jacob H and he said “my favourite activity so far is air rifles in the dark! I’ve done lots of activities! More photos coming up later! All scouts had food and back out for more activities!
