Don’t forget to post pics in the section camp album

  Activity 1 Family sleeping bag race

This is much like potato sack races except you will use your sleeping bags to hop along to the finish line in. If you are worried about getting them dirty or damaging them, using your plastic bin bags can be fun too

  Activity 2

 

Have extra marshmallows from your S’mores? Everyone should put one in their mouth and try to say the phrase “Chubby Bunny.” No problem? Okay, then get another one, and see if you can say it with two marshmallows in your mouth. Keep going until you can’t say it, either because your mouth is too full, or you’re laughing too hard.

Chubby Bunny Don’t forget to post pics in the section camp album
  Activity 3

 

All you need is a ball to play this game. Everyone stands in a circle except for one player who is in the middle with the ball. The player in the middle goes around the circle saying “catch” or “don’t catch” and throwing the ball. Like the children’s game, Simon Says, if a player catches the ball when told not to or the other way around, that player is out.

Catch

 

Teenagers especially can be a hard group to tear away from their devices, but games like this could be fun for them too.

BACON, BEEF, AND BEANS CASSEROLE

¾ Pound Bacon
¾ Pound Ground Beef
20 Ounces Canned Baked Beans
½ Cup Steak Sauce or Barbecue Sauce
1 Can of Biscuits

This tasty and filling Dinner is just perfect for cold evenings. Grill up the bacon in a skillet at medium heat. Once done remove it from heat, drain, and chop. Now cook the Ground beef until it is just done. Add the chopped Bacon, Baked Beans, and Sauce to the skillet. Stir this until it becomes well mixed and comes to a boil. Take it off of direct fire (think low to medium heat) and layer out the biscuits on top of the Meat and Bean mixture. Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the biscuits are golden, brown, and delicious.

Abseiling – November 2017

Lots of our Scouts took part in abseiling off the bridge at Millers Dale on the Monsal Trail at the weekend.

A huge thank you to the climbing team instructors Adam, John and others that helped out, which made this activity possible. There will be more photo’s of this activity soon.

Bear Grylls Challenge – October 2017

Our Scouts completed their Bear Grylls challenge, enduring high winds and rain for most of the weekend. Luckily they were quite sheltered in the wooded area, and their survival shelters were top notch. A big thank you to all the leaders and helpers that made this experience possible. More photos from the activity can be found at the 3rd Brampton Scout Group Facebook page.

Fishing At Holymoorside Dam – June 2017

The Scouts went fishing this Friday at Holymoorside Dam with members of the Holymoorside Angling Club. They caught a lot of fish over the evening, most of which made it into the holding net (though some did get away). Everyone enjoyed the summer evening, and a really big thank you to all the members of the angling club that looked after our Scouts and taught them about the different baits and techniques best suited to catch the different types of fish found in the pond.  The biggest catches of the night were the tench.

Back To Basics Day – May 2017

Scouts took part in a back-to-basics day held at the local Spitewinter campsite. They all enjoyed the knife and hand axe, fire lighting, and preparing and cooking (and eating) a pheasant activities. A big thanks to Alan who taught our Scouts about the different parts of a pheasant and how to prepare the bird ready for cooking. All the leaders commented on how engrossed our Scouts were on this particular activity! Scouts also took part in a promotional photo to say thank you to Buildbase for the donation of a wood store to the Spitewinter campsite (to keep the campfire wood dry all year round).
