Here’s what we found after Theme Park Camp. JP busily concreting along the side of the hut and replacing the slabs that had broken.
You might not always notice the improvements but we’re making the place better all the time. But no. We can’t stop it smelling of ‘hut’.
A really fun blast from the past for Thunder Troop – Scout staff drill – here was what the PLs worked from:
and you can check out how successful they were here:

After years of playing crab football in the hut we took some inspiration from The Paralympics and had a go at sitting volleyball and it was a brilliant success.

We followed it up with a rather chaotic world tradig game that let some of our younger scouts show their leadership skills. If we can turn them into PLs, we should have a fun few years ahead.
While we’ve been enjoying our time off, John has been hard at work sanding and painting the hut. He’s done half of it.and it looks awesome.
Woe betide any child trying to scrape this paint away!
There’s been plenty of work happening at the scout hut this summer. Here’s a taste of some of it.Â
The Fifth has doubled in size in 10 years and, to match the growth, we have had to buy an awful lot of kit. We welcomed girls in 2007 and that meant we needed more new tents, toilets and changing areas. We are careful with your money and we shop around for months to find the best deals for The Fifth. How about some examples?
