Well we did it! We went on a sleepover! To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Beaver scouting our wonderful Assistant Distict Commisioner (ADC) Beavers, Tracy organised a funday and sleepover. all we had to do was take along a craft base.
The theme was "Join in Jamboree", a plan of themes to help all in scouting feel a part of the World Jamboree being held in Sweden this year. In the end we picked March's theme of our environment, endangered animals and in particular the rainforest habitat.
Our bases were tiger plate masks, magnetic geekos onleaves and lots of word searches and crytograms (I like to "be prepared" with lots to do in case of rain!).
Also squeezed in was a birthday party tea and party games, elastic band shooting, sucker archery, football, a 2 hour hike to the blue lagoon with hotdogs and soup and finally a late night showing of Kung Fu Panda. That was only Saturday! Sunday brought sports day and home.. phew!
We had 3 Beavers stay for the funday on Saturday and 16 sleepover, 54 in total for the funday and 35 for the sleepover. For us leaders, Bev, Emma and Adam it gave us a chance to spend a longer time with the beavers and support them in doing new things. We also had a chance to meet up with Furzton, Wolverton, Saints and Netwon Longville Beavers scouts and their leaders. It helps share ideas and have fun together. We are up for planning our own sleepover in the Autumn term so please shout if you are interested in helping or planning.
