The Wild Place-sparklers,spooky camp night and a campfire

We had a wild night outdoors ,with sparklers,spooky fun in the graveyard and tents followed with marshmallows toasted on the fire.

we ended with fun in the dark indoors,all were told to go on hands and knees and crawl around to find glowsticks which they could then use.

Finally we had Bronze award Ceromony for some very well deserved Beavers.

Do we match?

loisbeavers — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 11:23:55 +0000

The aim of the evening was to match 25 times -25 cards/items/beavers ect

A fun challenge which started with 25 minutes in the church to find matching card –they had to do this in silence!—-failed this miserably–no surprise.

asking if matching card----girls no talking!

another challenge was to get 25 different outfits together in 25 seconds hilarious

Photography

Beaver photography

We made 14th Cambridge Beaver Badge books and all the beavers were shownhow to work the camera and computer for instant photography .This fascinated them and it was a very succesful and enjoyable evening.The beavers followed all the instructions exactly —-I could not believe we had a hall full of beavers,the concentration level was high and this produced a silent room .UNBELIEVABLE

They each produced a photo to put on the front of their booklet and then put them into the envelopes which they had decorated ——I had some very proud beavers.

happy beavering
