This weeks activities are as follows:

  • Smalls & YL’s: you guys are at Bickenhill as usual. You need to bring a Coca-cola brand plastic bottle or  a couple. These are Coca-cola (and derivatives), Fanta, Sprite & Dr Pepper. The best sizes are the 1.5L size or you can bring smaller if you want. A combination of them will be good. You are going to use them to create rockets and see how far you can get them. There will be a target and prizes for furthest bottle and closest to the target. New members are welcome to come and have a go!
  • Bigs: you are at Blackwell Adventure doing some raft building and then testing your creations. The postcode for the location is B60 1LJ, directions are at this link http://goo.gl/maps/zMzdi – it is on Pikes Pool Lane. When you turn onto Pikes Pool Lane you need to continue for 250m, the entrance is on the right hand side.  The journey will take around 25 mins and everyone needs to be on site by 6.45pm. The session will finish ready for collection at 8.30pm. It’s a little bit of a drive so feel free to stick around and watch / help out. All participants need to take clothing that can get wet in a pond and plastic bags to bring it back home in. Every participant MUST have shoes to take into the water. The session will cost £7, please make sure to have a cheque made payable to “Challenge Adventure Group” for this amount. Please let us know if you can or cannot make it, some already have, you can let us know the online form at this link. This session is a bit of fun but also a training session for the teams about to take part in the D of E practice and assessment expeditions.

That’s it, please us know of any questions!
