The cubs sleep together in six-person tents and not in their parents tents (parents sleep in their own tents in an adjoining field). The camp will have its usual format with “Romans” as this year’s theme and the cubs, with their parents, will be working in sixes together.

During the weekend various activities will take place, both indoors and outdoors. We usually cover quite a lot of badge work and run outdoor activities including ??, ?? and shelter/den building.
