Over the weekend our older Scouts were joined by Scouts from 1st Blundeston for the latest in a series of Leadership Development Weekends. On this occasion the attendees had to:

construct a lengthy bridge from garden canes,

Construct an “A frame” and then walk this via ropes (also known as “walking the Giraffe”,

pitch and strike a patrol tent within 20 minutes,

plan, prepare and serve a meal for invited guests (including our County Commissioner) and give three after dinner speeches

and then on Sunday morning they took part in a simulation of running a troop for six months, in three hours
