Camelsdale Cubs had a splendid Autumn backwoods camp, starting 6pm on Friday 25th through to Sunday lunch time. This was our first camp headed up by our new leader Chikai (occasionally known as Ivor) who, known for his impeccable organisation, even laid on the most glorious weather we've ever known. A great couple of days with a lovely bunch of kids.

All agreed this was one of the best summer camps we've had with Camelsdale Cubs - 4 days and nights camping at Streamside Scout Hut on the south coast. This was the second time we've camped at Streamside, and we'll be back again. 

This year we:

• Tried to kayak on the river (not easy when the tide is out!)
• Made our own boats from cardboard boxes (and over half a kilometre of duck tape)
• Floated and paddled in said boats, with a 60% degree of success
• Raced go-carts
• had a civilised round of golf on the local links
• mucked about on the beach
• visited the RNLI
• made our traditional last evening armpit fudge

Plenty of photos were taken, take a look here
