Centenary Camp
We had a 6 hour journey to get to camp, and got there at
01.30am. Luckily the tents were already
up, so we could
go straight to bed.
There was an opening with parachutists and a marching
band.
On Saturday we did quad-biking, go-carting, first aid,
rifle firing and
golf with scouts.
You can see a picture of the absolutely huge campfire.
Even bigger then
the one at Jambe
During the night we were evacuated as there was a severe
storm warning.
We got to sleep in a hangar with a twin engined plane.
On Sunday I went to help the cubs with pioneering and
building catapults
to fire wet sponges. I got soaked. I also had a camera with me so I
could take
photos for my photographers badge. You can see them on the photo site.
In the
evening we had a disco.
It was a very tiring but good camp.

It was
a great experience for us and my son was very excited telling
everything
to his mum and brother.
So all
that remains to say is thank you to all involved who provided us with
an
experience to be repeated
B.H
O.
really enjoyed the camp, far more than he expected, and we are very
grateful to
all who organised it. I think the highlight was being evacuated
in the
middle of the night and moved to the aircraft hanger.
