Tonight’s update is a combination of 6th Cork Scouts Sean & Sean
Saturday July 12th
Today the scouts woke up and had their breakfast. The group was called to fall in and was informed that they were to be sleeping out in a shelter made of natural materials. We took about an hour and a half to construct. The scouts were not permitted back onto their sites until the following morning. The weather was quite bad during the evening and during the night. We were cooking on trangias and before going into the shelter two patrols made pasta and one made rice; due to the weather the scouts weren’t allowed to sleep in the shelter because of that the scouts slept in the tents.

After we got up our first activity was a game of crazy football. Mark was our referee for the game. He was biast towards the team Cian wasn’t on. After that we went down to the river for activities. One of our activities was being timed going through the river following sizel. We also had to put out candles in the river from a distance. We also made natural buckets to carry water across the river. We had to crawl through mud in a spiders web as well. Then we began building a dam in the river. It raised the water level a small bit. Then we had a scout’s own by the river. We cooked our own dinners after that. We talked for a while and went to bed.
P.S. Mark should not be a referee.
