The Lower Burdekin Scout Cubs Take to the Skies

On Saturday, 21 September, the Lower Burdekin Scout Group joined fellow Cub Scouts from across Queensland for an unforgettable day of flying in Emerald. The action-packed Air Activities event included hands-on experiences like flying planes, building model aircraft, operating drones, and testing out a flight simulator. Along with these exciting activities, the Cubs made plenty of new friends. A big thanks goes to the Queensland Scout Flying Team for organizing such an incredible day. The Cubs returned home both exhausted and thrilled after a truly memorable experience.
