We have just received the district and branch plans for the camps (at least for the next couple of months). We have so much going on. Cuboree (Scout patrol leaders, new scouts and linking cubs), District cubs camp, we have a sleepover at our groups hall (with good weather they will be in tents) and I'm sure there will be something I have missed.
As one of the most common problems with scouting, is finding willing volunteers to help run activities. Camps especially so. So when the whole district wants to run a camp, its great. There are people who have done it before, and new people. There is usually the planning and other major parts to the camp already sorted out, and for the rest of us, just turn up and pitch in.
It's a great learning experience on how to and how not to do things.
Now if I can only get all of the cubs to come (not just the same ones who love to go camping).
Maybe can get some of the new parents to volunteer as well.
It will be an interesting few couple of weeks.
