Activities

Participants will receive an activity choice form in April 2008. As far as possible they will be allocated to the activities of their choice. Participants will receive their individual programme of activity sessions on arrival at camp. They will not be allocated to activities with their patrol which will give everyone more opportunities to make new friends.

Safety is one of our top priorities and the Guide and Scout Associations rules for joint adventurous activities will be adhered to. All adventurous activities will be supervised by qualified staff and the appropriate ratios of leaders maintained.

There will be many activities to choose from:-

adventurous activities
watersports
community action projects

Creative crafts

drama / music / dance
sports and team building
swimming
