On one of the hottest weekends this year, 300 Cubs and Scouts
from across Scotland, gathered at Fordell Firs National Activity
Centre for Fordell Fast Forward.
As well as giving young people to opportunity to take part in a
range of fun and adventurous activities, the camp aimed to
encourage the transition between the Cub and Scout Sections by
giving older Cubs a taste of what the Scout Section is all
about.
Cubs and Scouts took part in seven hours of activities from bell
boating and bungee trampolining to caving to climbing. In total 22
activities were on offer.
On the Saturday evening a carnival took place which included
large inflatables, disco, face painting, games and more. The night
was finished off by a great camp fire.
Camp Leader Richard Fairbairn said: "I'd like to thank the many
people that volunteered their time to make what is very much a team
effort possible".
Comments from the Cubs and Scouts -
"Awesome! Loving every second of it!"
"Fordell Firs is amazing, I definitely want to come again"
"The bungee trampoline was awesome"
"This feels like home now, I don't want to leave!"
- certainly suggested the weekend had been a success.
