Chariot Races, Magic Carpet Rides and Bridge Building from our meeting on Thursday

It was great to see all the members of our Troop (new and old) working together to remind any passing aircraft of our Group Number! #164thDublin

We kicked off our Scouting year last Thursday. It was great to see Scouts again and get back into action. We made some Twists (some of which were actually edible!!!) and tasty S’mores.

Great to see, in person, all our Scouts back in action last Thursday. We took full advantage of the weather having tasty sausie sambos and burgers.

The patrols were also challenged to transport as much water as they could, socially distancing from their fellow patrol members!! Congratulations to Ella and her Hedgehog Patrol who nearly filled their entire bucket!!

See you all again tomorrow!
