Moreland-Darebin Disctrict Cubs Camp @ Treetops

The weather was perfect for the Morelad-Darebin District Cubs camp in 2012 held at Treetops in Riddells Creek.  The theme was Under the Big Top and the cubs practiced their circus skills as well as plenty of activities throughout the weekend.
A great time had by all!
We will update pictures over the next few weeks.

1st Moreland Scouts get GOLD at Stradbroke!



Our scouts attended the annual Easter time Stradbroke Scout camp earlier this year and it was the first one for many in our small group of scouts. 
There were many tasks in which they were assessed - 50 categories in all - everything from Camp Placement to Patrol Spirit. It was an outstanding effort in which they performed very well achieving a gold.  
A great deal was learned at this camp.
Well Done to all involved!
