Halloween!!!

As we do every year, the scouts celebrate Halloween with a games night. Calving pumpkins, apple bobbing, doughnut challenge and turning our hut into a reservoir. There was some interesting pumpkins made from one being sick to one with knives in its head.

Cookery Competition!!!

What can be worse, letting a group of scouts cook up food from random tins? One night last week we had the inter-patrol cookery competition where all four patrols pick 2 random tins for main course and desert and have to cook it and present in a creative way. The score sheet reflects how different each patrol took this challenge on.
