The weather was a scorcher with the temperature in the 30's all weekend. But the scouts from all the teams coped with it well. The district camping competition is used to decide who goes forward to represent Sheppey District in the county cooking and camping competition in October During the event the scouts are scored on many things including :-
The judges are watching from the point the scouts arrive and start laying out their camp site to the end of the final litter sweep to ensure the site is cleared and tidy. Even with all this going on the scouts still have time for fun and games and enjoy themselves. On the Saturday night the parents are invited to the camp fire entertainment by the group and have a burger or hotdog as well, This year we had some additional entertainment as Dennis took his guitar to camp and performed a couple of songs, the best one was the Rolling Stones classic "Wild Thing" which James accompanied by using a barrel as a drum a performance everyone enjoyed including the performers themselves
