We have just had a fantastic three day camping expedition near Cannock. Fifty children camped with all the other scout groups from Harborough district (over 600 children in total). They enjoyed an amazing selection of outdoor activities. These were rock climbing, abseiling, crate stacking, clay pigeon shooting, axe throwing, go carting, kayaking, campfires...the list was unbelievable and it was brilliant fun.
