BLAST Party Day
In August we joined County again for the Party day at the County Centenary Camp. We travelled by minibus up to the site, and as we walked across the fields we could hear the music getting louder and louder!
As soon as we arrived it started to rain!
In a fun packed day we went to an alternative circus, looked how they camped 100 years ago,tried some different crafts, learnt some circus skills and watched a bird of prey display! They said owls are birds of very little brain - can this be true?
We ate lunch with the Guides at their sub-camp and had more cake. It was Brown Owls birthday so she blew the candles out. We had ice-cream, sang, bought souvenirs, watched a rocket launch into the next centenary and walked back to the bus all in our rain coats . It was a Blast.

Vision 20:10 20/10 2010In October we met up as a County for the Centenary Finale. Not before we had spent weeks making our special lanterns for the night.
In Stockport we had a lantern parade. We met as a district at the hut piled onto 2 coaches with our lanterns and brand new special promise badges ready to renew our promise with the rest of the world at ten past eight on the 20th October 2010. 2010 .2010 . Special glow in the dark 'ears' were put on, we lit our lanterns and the lights were turned out. What a sight nearly 2000 lanterns shining in the dark. We walked round the stadium then joined to renew the promise. Then headed for home. |
In Between time back at the hut......
