District Surf Camp 2004

On the 23rd and 24th october, three of our older scouts joined the Explorers on their Surf Camp in Bude. They had a great time surfing, surf kyaking in the sea off Bude. They also took part in canadian canoeing on the local canal, which involved answering questions on the surroundings and wildlife. The weekend proved to be an exciting introduction to Explorer Scouting in Uxbridge District for Edward Brown, James Joyce and Jack Harris.
