Cubs
American Indian camp
Sep 13th
Our weekend camp (10-12 Sept 2010) was great fun and even the rain went away once we had done our Rain Dance around the Totem Pole. We were well prepared to fend off those toublesome cowboys, having earlier on made our own tomahawks. A full report by our Cubs will follow soon, so keep a look out.
American Indian Cub Camp
Sep 9th
Thurs 9 September 2010.
Hi everyone and welcome back to the new Cubs term.
We are off to a flying start with the weekend American Indian themed Camp. Please arrive no earlier than 6.00 on Friday evening and please collect your child on Sunday at 1.00. Full uniform is compulsory. Please try and send them with clothes to suit all weathers as the forecast is a bit variable. OLD CLOTHES ONLY please, we are going to be using paint, it will go on their clothes, guaranteed, and will not wash out.
It may be cold overnight, so if you wish to pack a duvet or blanket as well as a sleeping bag please do so. Comfort soft toys are allowed.
If you have any old 1 or 2 inch emulsion paint brushes and any old bedsheets we can have for camp activities, please send them along with your child. Cakes and biscuits are always welcome and a great help to us. Sweets should be bagged and named, they are not allowed in the tents or Cubs bags.
Please do not allow them to bring ANYTHING electrical, we are not insured for these items.
ALLERGY RISK. We will be using a little face paint, so PLEASE TELL US IF IT AFFECTS YOUR CHILD’S SKIN.
Weather and circumstances permitting, we will also be doing Archery this weekend.
And finally, If you think you are mad enough to be a helper or leader, let me know, I hardly ever bite.
Thanks, John.
Tablers Cub and Scout camp 2010
Jul 5th
The Cubs had a great weekend of fun and activities whilst camping at Tablers Wood from 2nd to 4th July. The theme was Athletics and they all worked and played hard to successfully earn their Athletics badge, which they were presented with at close of camp. 
Other activities over the sun soaked weekend included parachute games, that night time wide game we never mention whilst on camp (ask the kids), and chocolate bananas from the open cooking fire. No camp would be complete without the night time camp fire and singing of silly songs.
For some it was their first time at camp, whilst others are old hands at it already, even at ten years old! 
All of them cooked their own breakfast over an open fire on saturday morning and not a single sausage was burnt. Some completed their Camper badge at this camp and will receive it at the next Pack meeting. Thank you to all the parents for cake and biscuit contributions, yummy!
The Cubs were joined on camp by the Scouts and we all had a fantastic weekend together. Look out for a camp report from one of the Cubs, which will be posted at a later date.
