Camping has always been an important part of Scouting. It is both an enjoyable experience (in all weathers!) and a learning experience in one. For those in the Scout movement it allows them to bring a variety of things they have been taught into practice.
Recently, we ventured on our yearly trip to The Old School Lodge, an indoor camp which we always love!
Surrounded by beautiful scenery in the heart of Snowdonia, with its gardens, outdoor climbing wall and games room, this camp is always a blast, with nice cosy beds and hot showers too! After our comfortable sleep we set off to an amusement park, GreenWood.
After den building, sledge riding, roller coasters boat rides, bouncy castles, a painfully exciting barefoot trail and even an ice cream or two, we headed back to The Lodge for a well earned rest!
After a movie and a good night's sleep we made our way to RSPB Conway (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) where we were greeted by the volunteers who had organised an exciting day for us around their centre!
In alternating groups, we went minibeast hunting, pond dipping, birdwatching and exploring! Everyone learnt something knew about birds and also why their centre is so important!
We all had a brilliant time, each and every one of us experiencing something new!
