This week on our zoom meeting Euan showed the Scouts how to make a camp classic: chocolate bananas. As well as being tasty, these also went towards parts of the creative challenge and chef’s badge.

Camping at Home
Last week we set the challenge of building a den or pitching a tent and ‘camping’ at home. Each night a Scout spends in their den qualifies for one towards a nights away badge. Here are some photos that have been sent in.
Scouting at Home
Now that we are back to doing virtual meetings, some of our members have been sending in photos of what they’ve been up to.
Thanks to those who have sent in photos already, and anyone else who would like to share any please do send them in.

Starting 2021 in the snow
The weather outside is frightful, but that didn’t stop some of our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts from getting out to build Snow-Scouts and go sledging!
It was even possible for us to tick off some badge requirements for the Adventure Challenge.
New Scouts Virtually Invested
While we continue to have our Scout meetings online, we have decided that we will be virtually investing our new Scouts.
Virtual Chief Scout Gold Award
The Deputy District Commissioner joined in with the Scouts virtual meeting on Zoom to present he Chief Scouts Gold Award, which is the highest award available to scouts.
Camp at Home
During the month of April, Northumberland Scouts came up with the idea of organising a virtual camp with Scouts from all over the UK joining in and camping at home. Some of our members joined in the record breaking 84,000 Beavers, Cubs and Scouts who camped at home. Well done to everyone who participated.
