Last year we took our older cubs off to Brownsea Island to celebrate the Cub Scout centenary. It was such a fantastic camp, very relaxed with a smaller number to look after, and more exciting for them as they had to bring their own provisions - proper explorer style! So good was the camp we decided to make it a tradition and run the camp each year as a "My Last Camp".
This year's camp was just as much a success as last year. Cubs made shelters from DD Tarps (thanks to Scouts for lending them), brought their own highly tactical survival food (some more tactical than others, but it's a learning curve), learned how to whistle through an acorn cup (thanks a LOT king Louie!) and witnessed the Colonel being awarded his wood badge (though maturity is in question).
