Our outing to the Cill Dara county day inLarch Hill,Dublin to join up with the scouts cub scouts from Clane went very well and we had a great time. the sun shone all day. We spent a lot of our time in the Beaver playground and all the Beavers enjoyed the experience of learning to put up tents. Denis was very patient with then all. Bernie was in charge of cooking the lunch and there was plenty for everyone. Beavers got a T- shirt, a key ring with their photo on it, a lovely certificate and a book of pictures to colour. Each Beaver who went on the outing received a special badge “Crafty Beaver” from us.
