Family Camp June 2024

No doubt we have around 80 exhausted people after returning from our annual family camp! With 24 families attending, it was sure to be a successful weekend and it didn’t disappoint.

What an amazing weekend it was! Our scouting family joined together to make the best family camp so far!

Everyone has given positive feedback and we all can’t wait to do it again, so we have decided to set a date in the near future for FC2025. Watch out for it on Facebook.

It was a packed full weekend of games, activities, singing and playing and joining together to embrace unity and nature.

We camped at the amazing Walesby Forest Activity Centre, who have been creating adventures since 1938, is an International Outdoor Adventure Activity Centre set in over 250 acres of forest, with over 30 adventure activities and a range of accommodation for a multitude of visitor groups.

The weather was kind to us and we had a whole host of activities to join in with and our families made good use of them, trying out new activities, with the young people working towards new badges.

Of course a camp wouldn’t be a camp without a campfire and a few songs, so we invited our very own Ben Widdowson to entertain us, and what a job he did!

We sang our hearts out to favourites like “Who we are”, “The Pirate Shanty”, “Cecil the Caterpillar”, ” Penguin’s attention” and many more, finishing off with our tradition of kumbaya. Kumbaya refers to moments of harmony and unity, and we certainly had lots of them whilst gathered together around the dying embers of the campfire.
