Cubs Summary of the week – 3rd July 2018

Weekly Summary

Apparently there was a football game going on this week, so we didn’t have many Cubs show up.  We still had plenty of fun playing games and making pancakes.

Next week

Next week we will focus on the Navigator badge, the Cubs will learn about maps and mark out a few local services and their home on a map.

We are planning an indoor camp in October, the activities are still being confirmed but we are considering:

  • Rifle shooting
  • Climbing 
  • Inflatable assault course

This is a family camp for beavers, cubs and scouts.  We hope as many adults as possible come, we want to show you how much fun it is to help as a leader.  The cost is still being confirmed, but it will heavily subsidised by the 52nd EFS Scout group to encourage as many young people and adults to come along.
