Out and About - but not on your feet...
Activity
We spend a lot of time out and about with scouting, usually on our feet, but this time we want you to think a bit differently!
Your challenge is to travel a distance appropriate to your section by a different means.
For example:
- Wheels
- Water
- Snow
Ensure you choose a distance appropriate to the age and abilities of your section
Think about the surface you are travelling along, and that it is appropriate for your mode of transport, ie a scooter will not be easy on grass.
