Akeema Shield 2008

On Saturday 9th February, Hyndburn District Beaver Scouts competed in the Akeema Shield at Bowley Scout Camp. This mini-Olympics style event was organised by ADC Tracy Shaw. Several colonies from the Hyndburn District took part and everyone had a lot of fun - leaders and beavers alike!

The winners were All Saints Mercer Beavers went on to represent the district in the county event at Bowley Saturday 8th March.

Although they had lots of fun, competing against Blackburn, Clitheroe, Pendle and Rossendale Districts , they could not repeat their earlier success, but went home happy and tired, with a

special certificate to show they had taken part.
