This is a competition started by Sheppey District Fellowship back in 1995

Each year beavers from all over the district compete in a variety of challenges for the trophy,

The trophy is a piece of wood chewed by beavers mounted on a wooden plinth and presented by a member of fellowship to the winning team

This year the challenges were

  • Hoopla

  • Knock down tin cans

  • Pea transfer

  • Beaver biscuits

  • Word search

  • Crisp tasting

During the competition the hall was quiet except for the sound of the tins crashing down, and we did get a request for quieter tins please.

the results were

  1. 2nd Sheppey with 36 points

  2. 7th Sheppey with 30 points

  3. Joint 3rd, 8th and 12th Sheppey with 26 points
