Welcome to 11th Hitchin Scouts’ Web site. Here’s what our Beavers, Cubs and Scout Troop are doing this term. Here’s where you’ll also read what we’ve done, see photos and catch up on our news.
Town trail
Walking round the town centre, what places would be really important to know about if someone came to live here as a refugee?
Camp site layout
How would you lay out a site for summer camp? A couple of different sites to look at and discuss with your Patrol.
Christmas party
A few silly games to finish the term. In Covid, to avoid passing too much around, bring your own food and sit down together to eat it.
Climbing and archery
Many thanks to the District team for providing an opportunity for Scouts to try these activities in a local sports hall.
How are you getting on?
A chance for Scouts to sit down in their Patrols with a leader, and look at their badge progress. What do you need to get done to complete that last Challenge?
Quiz
Which Patrol would be the brain boxes?
Trading post
Patrols competed to earn “money” by completing various challenges and tasks. Could you organise your Patrol to get as much done as possible in the time?
Let it burn
Fire-lighting at a local camp site. It’s harder in the damp, dark autumn than in the middle of summer!
Life auction
Wipe the slate clean and buy yourself a personality from scratch. Will you value friendships, ability at sport, strong beliefs, popularity or any of many other traits that we might hope to have?
Just desserts
We tried some dessert recipes that would work at camp. We were actually all at home over Zoom, which is a great way to see lots of simultaneous cooking going on. We’ve got a page showing more of what we cooked.
