Dunham Park Scout Camp - Jan 2013

With a flurry of snow just before we set off, proved to be a proper winter camp.
A joint adventure with 7th St John's Scouts, good fun was had by all.

God was watching over us when we set off just in time to miss some awful driving weather, allowing us to arrive at camp just in time.  Otherwise, we would have had to cancel as conditions ended up too bad to travel.

After a tour of the camp site and a short wide game, activities centred inside, with Action-twister being the most competitive  along with a card school (no gambling!!)




After a wholesome breakfast it was outside to partake in some Archery and Rifle shooting.  Daniel was a dab hand at the Archery! (must be all the cowboys and Indians he plays with Carl?).




Some outdoor Pioneering projects followed on the Saturday afternoon in preparation for a night 'Attack The Base'!  Some excellent teamwork on the wig-wam base!





After another games night to warm up after attack the base, it was a display of 'one-sies' and some amateur dramatics by some....




Sunday and the weather had cleared the snow, but left a lovely day for some Navigation through the deer park in Dunham Massey...

 A quick history lesson about the mills...

 a photo opportunity outside the Massey

Aarron made this in his lunch break ;-)



And then time to break camp and head home...... for some well earned sleep!
