The other weekend, the Squirrels from the 27th Scout Group had a brilliant time at their sleepover, showing just how capable our youngest section can be – whether helping prep tea or sleeping away from home!
A highlight was a visit to Portrack where we had a reptile experience at Smith’s Pets (complete with the biggest snake I’ve ever seen) before heading to Go Outdoors, where their team ran a fantastic free activity, complete with a scavenger hunt and sleeping bag stuffing races.
I’d really recommend any section looking into the sessions with Go Outdoors – they’re free to book (given they are Scout sponsors) and tailor it to the section and activity you’re preparing for.
Finally “Why did the reptiles have a sleepover? Because they wanted to scale up their friendship!”
