During a recent troop camp at Lake Eland, scouts focused on building troop morale and building a practice raft. The unique and exciting raft race, which is scheduled to take place on March 1 at Baynesfield Dam, will see enthusiastic participation from the KZN district.
“In addition to the raft build, scouts enjoyed a wide range of activities that strengthened their outdoor skills and teamwork. These included fishing, cycling, baking bread, cooking their own meals, building shelters, and a very popular paintball session. The camp provided a fun, hands-on experience while reinforcing key scouting skills and camaraderie,” said Adele Wilson of 1st Umbogintwini Scouts.
