Wild West Sleepover at Waddow Hall in May 2011

Beavers enjoyed a Wild West Theme
Sleepover at Waddow Hall, Nr Clitheroe.


Pictured left is Stinky Pete the Prospector
who proved to be a great hit with the Beavers,
especially when he offered them some sweaty sock
soup at the campfire!




Over the course of 24 hours, Beavers took part in lots of Wild West craft activities,
games and wild west events as well joining in the campfire singsong

Having just raided the tuck shop, these three
Beavers were off to the play ground.

Beavers taking part in the sleepover earned the Nights Away Stage 1 Badge and received a special Wild West Beaver Sleepover Certificate.

Campfire & Fun Night at Bowley Scout Camp

Kiddy Karts in the Sports Barn

The Beavers thought it was great fun flying down the hill on the grass sledges, but it was hard work pulling them back up again!

Toasting marshmallows on an open fire - yum! 

Visit from Coopers Critters

 Beavers enjoyed an animal encounter with Coopers Critters recently.  

Holding a Giant Snail

The snake was very big, but the Beavers weren't bothered and sat there while it slithered across their legs.



The children were able to hold Giant Snails, a Tarantula, a Boa Constrictor, a really cute baby hedgehog and a skunk called Blossom!
