Cubs, Beavers and Scouts from North Richmond have taken up the challenge to do some virtual camping in April and earn some nights away badges.
What needs to be done?
– Pack a bag
– Build a den at home or pitch a tent in the garden
– Sleep in the shelter of choice (Must be under parental supervision if outside)
– Draw or make a virtual ‘campfire’ to show us (or even build a real one and take a photo if able to do so in the garden with parental supervision)
– Take part in a “Scouty activity” – your choice!
– Help with cooking a meal for the family
For every night, you’ll need to take some photos to show us what’s been done, and we can share them on our website and at some of the section nights after Easter those that have taken part can tell the rest of the section – and also share this on social media if you can:
Twitter: #CampAtHome and @NRichmondScouts
Instagram: #CampAtHome and @NorthRichmondScoutGroup
You can also register online, here: https://www.campathome.org.uk/ with Northumberland Scouts (who came up with this idea) to get a virtual certificate for taking part. And there’s also a world record attempt at the end of April to try and get as many people camping on April 30th as possible. It would be great to see a lot of North Richmond Beavers, Cubs and Scouts take part!
