BROWNSEA CUB PACK - Les (Kerick)
On the nearest meeting to Shrove Tuesday, the sixes took it in turns to cook pancakes which were delicious....... We also played table tennis and learned about health and safety in the home. We’ve also had a superstar’s competition - climbing ropes, penalty goals, fitness course and obstacle course. The fitness theme continued with our fitness challenge when 12 Cubs gained the badge. Well done, boys. John and Ben ran on evening on recycling when we made recycling boxes from recycled McDonalds cartons. The Cubs had to fill them with recycled material for a week Once the clocks had gone forward, we were able to get outside and had a Smugglers’ wide game in Nonsuch Park. Good fun.

We practised for the Scouts’ Own at the end of March, which the cubs ran very well. After the Scouts’ Own we said goodbye to Asher and Robert who went up to Purple Troop and Chris who went up to Silver Troop. We welcomed Cameron, Jamie and Edward from the Beavers.

Well done to Chris and Robert on gaining the Adventure Crest Award and the Cub Scout Challenge.
