Camps
Camps will vary year to year, but the group usually has the following Camps:
Cycle Camp/Expedition
Recent location include The Isle of Man and the Isle of Wight, two years ago we cycled around North Wales and Anglesey covering around 150 miles. The cycle expedition involves camping in public campsites and travelling between them on cycles. All kit including the tents and cooking utensils are carried in panniers and on top of the rack on the bike. The cars are left at home for this one! Places of interest are visited on route. In 2012 we are going to France.
Please click here for details on Cycle Camp Preparation for information on how your bike should be packed on the cycle camp.
Reports of previous cycle camps can be found below:

Patrol Camp
The patrols get to camp on their own without leaders (although leaders will keep an eye on what is going on). This is where all the scouting skills come together.
Group Camp
Wolf Cubs, Scouts and Senior Scouts all camp together on this camp. The camp usually has a theme as does the menu. This is usually a long weekend (Friday night to Sunday afternoon). The scouts cook on open fires and usually cater for the rest of the group. We usually have a hike on the camp and of course a camp fire. Depending on the theme camp we may be doing pioneering, fist aid of working towards another badge.

Scout Summer Camp
This is week long camp (usually) in the school summer holidays. Previous locations include Losksters Pool and Brecon. Scouts Camp in the traditional way on green field sites (Farmers' fields) sleeping under canvas and cooking on open fires. We usually have a hike on the camp, visit a place of interest and on the Friday, spend the day in a near by town and have a Fish and Chips lunch.
In the last camp we visited Brownsea Island (where the experimental camp way held) and Corfe Castle.
