Cyclist badge on Saturday 3rd October

Nine Cubs joined King Louie on a seven mile bike ride along Greenway. The Cubs then completed their Cyclist badgework at our meeting the following Tuesday. Well done to Kieren, Sonny, Fin, Alfie, Annabel, Beatrix, Jessica, Maddie and Martha for doing this activity badge.

 

 

September Meetings

We've tried to get outside as much as possible this month so that we could make the most of the last few light evenings in 2015. That means we've been mainly doing activities from the Adventure Challenge Award. At our meeting on 22nd September, the Cubs made Coke and Lemonade bottles into rockets and launched them into space; well almost! Most went pretty high though and there's some good video on our Facebook page.

You can see how this one took off!

 

For their later goes, the Cubs had to work out how to launch an egg attached to the rocket and it still be in one piece after it landed. Most managed it, others found this bit messy!

This continues to be our principle way of showing everyone what we do each week, so if you are a Facebook user, feel free to take a look!

EdZOOcational Night

On 16th June 2015, we had a very interesting evening. It was a meeting that the Beavers came along to as well, because the wide range of small animals were too good to miss. Both the Cubs and the Beavers had a great time handling the animals, finding out about where they lived and - in the case of the meerkat - even getting to get involved in the feeding.

 

 

Emergency Aid Stage 2: An Evening with a Paramedic

Thank you to Anna who joined us for the evening of 2nd June 2015 to not only test the Cubs on their Emergency Aid Stage 2 badge, but also to talk about life as a Paramedic.

 

Congratulations to our latest Chief Scout Silver Award holders.

The Chief Scout's Silver Award remains the highest that any Cub Scout can achieve and we are very proud of Jacob, Callum, Christopher, Leilah and Lucy for completing theirs. To do so, they have worked hard to complete all six Challenge Awards: Community, Creative, Fitness, Global, Outdoor and Promise Challenges. Not every Cub will get this award and these could be the last we present this year, so be proud you five - you've done really well!
 Presenting their award was Ian, the ADC (Cubs) in West Warwickshire.

County Camp ("Get-In 2015) at Ragley Hall, May 15th, 16th and 17th.

Twenty one of our Cubs joined nearly 4,000 other members of the Scouting Movement from Warwickshire on the evening of Friday 15th May for a great weekend of fun and activities.

After an opening ceremony on the Friday night, activities commenced all through Saturday and Sunday morning and we finished with a Closing Ceremony on Sunday afternoon.

Just like any camp, we catered for ourselves. Felix and George did a great cooked breakfast!

Scarlett and Martha starting their "arm-pit fudge"!

A lot of the Cubs enjoyed the water activities.

Yes, there was even a Circus to go to!

 

There were far too many technology, science, making, cooking, climbing, music or other badge activity bases to include in all our photographs. See our Facebook page for more (plus some video!).
