Cub Badge Day

We are inviting all Cub Packs to come and join us for a fun filled day where we will be completing all the exciting requirements of the Backwoods Cooking Badge and the Pioneer Badge! 

We will be lighting fires, attempting to cook different things on our fires and then putting our fires  safely, as well as making our own rope and learning a few knots, playing a few games and learning lots of skills! 

Bookings

Please book your Cub Pack using this booking form: https://forms.office.com/e/DJEYi5caWb

What to bring

Everyone should come in their Cub uniform, including neckers, and be wearing appropriate footwear for walking on grass and in woods. 

Each Cub will need their own rucksack that they can carry around the bases with them, that contains:

• Box with a lid (like a takeaway box)
• Waterproofs
• Packed lunch
• Refillable water bottle
• Sun hat and sun cream (if the weather is good to us!)

Adults should bring their own appropriate first aid kit for going around the activity bases and deal with any minor injuries themselves. We will have additional first aid cover on site for anything more serious.

Car Parking

Your Cub Pack will be assigned an arrival and departure time to help spread out the cars entering and exiting the site. This information will be shared closer to the time, to allow us to evenly spread out those that have booked on. 

To help lower the number of cars on site, please encourage your parents/carers to arrange car sharing between themselves. 

Activities

Each Pack should please split their Cubs into groups of 6 - 8, and assign a DBS-ed adult to each of these groups to go around the activity bases with them.

Each base will have volunteers from the Events Team there to explain the activity and set the Cubs off on their activities. There will be a 'passport'  so you can see what activities are on offer, and can go around the site during the day ticking off the activities to earn the badge.
