The 113th Burnside Beaver Scouts embarked on their first camping expedition to Auchengillan, near Blanefield.
Many of the 113th Burnside Beaver Scouts took part in their first overnight stay away from home in an adventure Scout camp.
The highlight of the weekend was building a den from natural materials and spending a few hours in it, putting up their tents, and taking part in a range of outdoor activities, including pond-dipping and a blindfold assault course, as well as working on challenges towards meeting some of their scout activity badges.Get all the news from your area – as well as features, entertainment, sport and the latest on Lanarkshire’s recovery from the coronavirus pandemic – straight to your fingertips, 24/7.
Group Scout Leader Graeme Hamilton said: “Every year, we make sure all our sections go on at least one overnight trip, and the leaders and parents who give up their weekend to provide a fun programme deserve a huge vote of thanks. “For many of the six-year-olds, this was their first overnight away from family and home and they all had a great time.”
