Knots were learnt to build rafts which, when tested on the lake, held together for an eyebrow raising amount of time. Then came a kayaking lesson with hair-raising stunts and some very soggy cubs!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One evening, we learned a new repertoire of campfire songs when we joined with hundreds of other members of the scouting and girl guiding community at the communal campfire.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the final morning our intrepid cubs tunnelled into the cave bus, navigating their way in the dark, around corners and tight spaces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Between Jumanji challenges there were fun quizzes, games of rounders and plenty of Paul&#8217;s famous porridge. But how did they finally escape Jumanji&#8230;? By rockets of course! The teams used water bottles and plenty of air pressure to launch themselves out of the game, just in time for their parents&#8217; arrival. &#8220;It has been the best camp ever!&#8221; Enthused one cub, &#8220;I want to do it all over again!&#8221;<br \/>\nWill there be a sequel?
