Last weekend I went to camp for my first full weekend with our Beavers. I\u2019ve visited them while at camp before, but never stayed for the whole time. <\/p>\n

Now I have to mention here that I wasn\u2019t in \u2018full Leader\u2019 mode as such while we were there, as Carol and Rachael (wife & daughter) were there as well, so a lot of my time was spent chasing after an 18 month old little girl who was enjoying being out in the open and playing in the mud and puddles! The other Leaders knew it was going to be like this!<\/p>\n

We all went out on the Friday evening to prepare and the Beavers came out on the Saturday morning. <\/p>\n

Beavers are only allowed to stay away from home for one night, which is why they came out on Saturday. They can now sleep under canvas, but it was decided that it\u2019s much easier for them to stay in a building \u2013 they are only 6 \u2013 8 years old!<\/p>\n

The theme for the camp was \u2018under the sea\u2019 so the Beavers had fun with all things water based (luckily it had stopped raining by this point!).<\/p>\n

Of course, we had a campfire which was great fun.<\/p>\n
