What did you do Saturday morning?
Well, 11 Beavers from 7th (plus 1 Cub) walked around the docks (including Queen Square) to complete tasks organised by Cabot District in aid of Children In Need.
We walked a full 3 hours around the docks without any grumbling…
They all did a really fantastic job and I was really proud of them all.
We also deciphered the code correctly too!!
Thanks to everyone who took part and also all those who helped too (even those who got in a sneaky coffee along the way….haha)….
There’s still time to donate now if you haven’t already. Go to our Just Giving Page:

A great evening investing 5 of our newest Cubs into the Pack this week! Congratulations and enjoy the adventures at the 7th Bristol Scout Group. ⚜️

Wear Beaver T-shirt, jumper and necker.
Necker is VERY important so organisers recognise what Beaver group you are from.

No shelter and they will be walking despite the weather
12.30 Beavers to gather back at College Green
12.30/12.45 Presentation/ Celebration for completing the 5km walk
An evening of craft as the Cubs enjoyed making creations with Hama beads. I think it’s fair to say the Cubs found it more and enjoyable and far less stressful than the leaders who had to iron them together without breaking them… 😖
At the end of the evening, the Cubs heard how Hathi and Bagheera had completed their Gold Duke of Edinburgh expedition during the Summer in not very pleasant conditions…

Thank you to Avon County Assessors Kate and Ross who came to listen in on them too. Kate then presented Hathi’s Wood Badge certificate for completing his volunteer leader training - congratulations to him! 👏⚜️

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted. What did you do tonight?
Well, our Beavers at 7th drew up their lodges (there were some interesting self-portraits), talked about air travel and made paper aeroplanes, flying them in a competiton.
Then ladders and SPLAT and time for home….
Thanks to all….
Cubs gain their Collectors Badge!
From fossils and crystals to comics and Lego, the Cubs had a marvellous time sharing their collections and being inspired by others stories.
The beavers enjoyed hunting for autumnal treasure at Ashton Court tonight. We made the most of the dry and light evening!
So nice to see outside activities Mike Keefe
Sunset scheming (wide games) and s’mores at 7th Bristol campsite ‘Stiles’ for the Cubs this evening. We have so much fun outdoors, and Stiles is a wonderful place that we’re very very fortunate to have at our disposal! Thanks as always to the volunteers who maintain it so well. (Get in touch if you’re reading this and fancy helping out!)
What did you do during the summer holidays?
Well, Raphaël, Lucas and I visited the birthplace of Scouting on Brownsea Island…
We went to the original campsite and walked around the island….
It really is a great place to visit….
We even met French Scouts who were helping tourists at Mont St.Michel on our visit there and chatted to them too….really was amazing to see Scouting in action in France too….
What did you do tonight?
Well, the Beavers at 7th welcomed 6 new kits (baby Beavers), learned a bit about each other with a game of Beaver Bingo, crossed a “river”, made up a code of conduct and invested a new Beaver.
All in all, a good nights work for our first one back…..(although it was very, very loud….🤯)…
Thanks to our old and new helpers….they’ll have animal names before long too…😁
Closing ceremony of a great camp!
It’s been a blast and your Cubs have been fantastic! BRAVO!! 😎⛺️
Everyone looks suitably exhausted!!! 🫠😴😴 Thank you all so so much for volunteering your skills (not to mention giving up your weekends) to take the Cubs and enable them to have such a fantastic time. Fun, growth and experiences they will remember forever 🥰⚜️
I brought home two tired but happy and excited cubs! Thank you to all the leaders for your time, patience and sleep deprivation over the weekend and throughout the year ❤️ PS we are missing pair of blue wellies if there are a pair left at the end!
OH MY GOODNESS! The rain hasn’t started and we are even taking the tents down DRY! It’s a miracle! 🤞
Thank you Chris, Adam and team 😊🙌
A much quieter breakfast today. Some of us are a little bit sleepy and perhaps not entirely with it…(!)
It’s been a long but successful day at District Cub camp! For some the excitement was a bit too much during the day! All are now in bed after campfire and hot chocolate, tired but happy after some great singing! 🎵🔥🎶
The calm before the storm? 🥴
Goodnight All! 😴
