On Friday 8/2/02, we went to Kibblestone for a weekend ‘camp’. I say ‘camp’ as the Scouts were staying in The Outpost and the only people actually camping were myself and one of the Ventures! For anyone familiar with The Outpost, it has just undergone a revamp and there are now heaters in there – part of the ‘fun’ of staying in The Outpost was freezing to death at night!
On the Saturday we did some knife and axe instruction with two of the new Scouts. In the afternoon we made a bridge across a road. However, we did it without using rope! See the photos. In the evening we did a wide game and then returned to The Outpost for a supper of pancakes.
On the Sunday we spent the majority of the morning pratting around. In the afternoon we packed up and came home.
