8th Letchworth Scout Group

This weekend we've been on a group camp to Tolmers, joining in Herts 100 with groups from all over Hertfordshire. Here's what our group members said about it:

Herts 100 was the best camp ever!! There was lots of activities to choose from and I did 23 altogether. My favourite activity was canoeing because I had never done it before and even though I was absolutely rubbish at it, I had a great time!! I also liked the Ghost Train because it wasn't scary at all so it made me laugh more than scream. We had a carnival on Saturday evening and everyone dressed up in funny outfits and blew whistles. The noise was deafening!! I thought the fireworks display was good as well. Before we left, we went into the main arena and danced to songs. We did a massive conga! We got a badge which I am going to sew onto my blanket along with my neckerchief and Tolmers badge that I bought. The whole experience was amazing and I wish I could have stayed for longer.

"First I got into a big line and walked to the big, noisy opening ceremony. It was about 45 minutes long. Then we went to see our campsite and then we went to play. Some of us made some biscuits and some of us made lemonade and then we all went to roast some marshmallows. And my favourite thing was eating the roasted marshmallows."
