May 2003 BROWNSEA CUB PACK - Les (Kerick) On our first meeting back after the Easter break we delivered Jumble Sale notices and caught up with some testwork and the following week we had a training session about care of tents and pitched some on the field. This was in preparation for our weekend camp held on 10th and 11th May. The camp went very well indeed and the Cubs who attended had a brilliant time. We camped at a Farm campsite near Banstead and our programme revolved around “I’m in a Cub Six - Get me out of here”. The sixes were Ant and Dec and after putting up our tents we went on a trek through the jungle over Colley Hill with test questions on the route. This was followed by cooking our tea over open fires, a good old sing-song around the campfire and a night walk - again through dense jungle (Banstead Woods). In the morning (after an inspection) we had to lay and follow trails through the woods as our forfeit and then we ventured onto an obstacle course (thanks to Michael and Ben). In the afternoon we took our tents down and at the closing ceremony discovered that Ant Six had won - Dec Six had to go back to the hotel....... well actually we all had to go home as it had started to rain. Well done to all the Cubs who attended and thanks to the helpers - Sally, John, Hazel, Ben and Michael. Congratulations to former helper Dawn and husband Andy on the birth of Isla Luisa on 1st May.
