The Lower Burdekin Scout Group recently joined fellow Scouts from Townsville and Charters Towers for an exciting weekend camp at Bluewater. The event brought together approximately 190 Scouts aged 5 to 25 years, along with 30 leaders and 30 adult helpers.
The camp's theme, "A Night at the Museum," inspired a variety of themed challenges such as History of Flight, The Art of Archery, The Rise of Civilisation, and The Wonders of Egypt.
Activities over the weekend included:
- Archery
- Fire lighting and campfires
- Navigation
- Kite and aeroplane making
- Flagpole construction
- Bark painting
- Obstacle course
Nighttime events featured a formal dinner followed by a screening of the movie "A Night at the Museum."
After a weekend filled with fun and activities, many participants returned home tired but happy, having enjoyed a memorable Scout camp experience!
