The Lower Burdekin Scout Group attended the regional regatta day at the Loam Island Scout Group in Townsville on Sunday April 14. The weather was very good for the water activities. Roughly 100 Scouts aged 5 to 15 years and 30 adults attended the day which involved raft making, canoeing, and land activities. The Lower Burdekin Scouts were members of the crew on the winning raft.
Recently, the Lower Burdekin Scouts were practising their fire lighting and fire safety in preparation for a camp on the coming long weekend on Magnetic Island.
If anybody is interested in trying Scouting for free, they can come along to the Lower Burdekin Scout Den on a Thursday night at Eighth St, Home Hill or ring Rikki on 0419104035 for more detail.
