So have a watch of the video below which shows you a variety of ways to get a fire going and, if you are able to do so, go give it a try. Please stay safe and make sure you are supervised appropriately (and we aren’t just talking about the kids!)

Closing words! Well that’s it folks. We hope you enjoyed yourselves – we certainly did! Here are a few words from Andrew Sharkey, Chief Commissioner of Scotland, Alasdair Garbett our District Commissioner, and some extra info... : https://youtu.be/6noZU358Xsc To help you out with awarding badges we have put together a breakdown for each section. This is only a guide, and Young People may have covered more or less (depending on what they have done over the weekend). Remember, have a chat with your leader, show them some evidence of what you got up to, and it’ll all count!
