The Mobile Zoo

This week, we really had a treat instore for the Beavers!

John, who owns a Mobile Zoo, very kindly offered to come over to us and show us a small selection of his fantastic rescue animals.

All the beavers very bravely took it in turns to hold and stroke them, not always aware of what they were letting themselves in for!

I think the pics speak for themselves!!

Woodlands Trust Visit

On Saturday 1st March 2008, leaders and scouts from the Beavers, Cubs and Scouts Sections of 1st Baxenden Scout Group went along to plant trees at the Woodlands Trust at Earby.

We had a fantastic turnout from all the sections, especially the Beavers, who brought along their parents too to help out - even though the cold windy weather threatend to beat us !!

I think it was safe to say that we generally had a fun time and we managed to cover quite a large section of turf too, so also quite a productive morning for a Saturday!!


Thanks to everybody who attended, especially the parents who came along, spade in hand and helped the group achive the Group Environment award.
