Cub Scout Camping - story by Izzy Jr #1

We had cub scout camping this weekend. It is the first time Izzy Jr #2 attend the camp-out as a cub scout. However below is the story from his elder brother as Izzy Jr #2 was too tired and went to sleep very early. We'll wait for his version in few days time! So go ahead Izzy Jr #1...

In my cub scout camping, there were lots of activities. There were First Aid workshop, knot tying competition and orienteering activity; where I learned to use compass. I enjoyed all of the activities. My favourite activity was the water balloon fight. In this game you throw water balloons to anyone to make them wet... we played in the rain so everyone ended up wet!

haha we all got wet!

Then, it was time for dinner. I ate my dinner with my den members. We ate chips, BBQ salmon, nuggets, BBQ chicken, hot dog and had marshmallow for dessert. After we're done eating dinner,we had pack meeting where we had lots of skits and singing. At 9:15pm, we then played Capture The Flag game with some boy scouts until 10:00pm. We played in the field and it was totally dark and still wet! We had to use our torchlight. When the game was over, I had my shower and cooked maggi with my father and lil' brother before going to bed.

Dinner time.... had to do it in the canteen because of the rain!

The next morning, the Webelos cub scouts which include myself, had to cook pancakes for the whole cub scout pack. I made chocolate chip pancakes. After eating breakfast, we went home. I enjoyed myself.

School Outing & Camp Out

This week, Izzy Jr#1 had a school field trip to the shopping mall during lunch break... the objective of the field trip is to try different cultural food. Each of them had to buy food from different stalls or different meal. The mall is only about 10 minutes walk from the school.

Over the weekend, we spent the nite camping out at East Coast Park... just a change in environment & to get away from all the TV's & computer games & xBox! BBQ is in the menu for dinner & morning was pancakes. We also brought our bicycles with us.
