Take a national park, a load of Explorers and great activities and you’ve got the Geoffrey Gordon Cup. A weekend of adventure for Explorer Scouts.
You’ll need to be at your best to complete our exhilarating physical and mental challenges to win the ultimate prize! Here’s what you can expect:

Friday Night – We ask all our teams to arrive on the Friday night at the start point for a briefing and to plan your route for Saturday.
Saturday – Teams start their challenge on the Saturday with a route of around 18km completing all the challenges which face them – in the past we’ve done everything from canoeing, a Jacob’s ladder, high rope challenges to a 16 foot giant see-saw in the trees! There are points available for every activity that you take part in.
Saturday Night – The competition stops for a few hours and we relax with a Film, Music, Food and Inflatables!
Sunday – Our event on Sunday takes a different twist and features lots of different activities in the local area. You’ll need to be fast and plan well to pick up all the points!

Expect to have a great time with your team, take part in some new and exciting activities, have a laugh and push yourself to win.
