14th to 16th February 2003

Thirteen Stotfold Scouts braved the cold (-7) at the 2003 District survival Camp. All of the Scouts took part in lots of activities and enjoyed the camp. Scouts learnt about fire lighting, shelter building, water purification, distress signals, first aid, rabbit skinning and more.

The Scouts built their shelters on arrival at Boyd field. These were their homes for the weekend. Scouts were given their rations over the weekend to cook and survive on. The Scouts decided to sleep round the fire, under the stars on the last night.

All of the activities done over the weekend gained the Scouts their Survival Skills badge.

More photos of activities will be here once developed.
