Another day and another cold morning. The Explorers had decided to keep everyone awake until the early morning with shouting between tents and text messaging each other.>

Activities ran in the morning from 10am till 1pm. With the Scouts keeping themselves busy during that.

Lunch was spaghetti bolognaise followed by whatever cakes were left (We had a lot donated by parents). We attended the closing ceremony at 2:15pm which wasn't very interesting but we followed it up with us all buying an ice cream in the shop.

Lots of troops had began packing away in the morning which seems a bit of a shame to me. I don't see the point in all that travelling only to not enjoy the last day of the camp. We were quite laid back and arranged to be picked up at 4pm so we had plenty of time in the afternoon to sort out the tents.

We got all of the tents down in time and had a quick go at the egg game before leaving. The egg game for those of you that don't know, has become a tradition of winter camp since we had a whole load of eggs left over. You line up into 2 lines and you have to throw an egg to your partner facing you. Your partner has to catch this without it breaking. Once everyone has had a go you take a few paces back and try it again. The winner is the last pair that has a whole egg left.

The journey back was fine and equipment was quickly offloaded when we got back to the Scout HQ.

Thanks goes to Janet Stone, Nick Cave and Steve Darlow for helping with transport.
