\"\"<\/a>This was a camp of many firsts for the 5th Dartford Scout Group.\u00a0For three of the 7 Scouts attending it was their first\u00a0camp as Scouts;\u00a0It was the first time the 5th had\u00a0competed at the National\u00a0Scout Archery\u00a0Competition and it was the first time we had taken a Gold medal, thanks to Burne Troop’s Matthew Buttler who won the under 12’s 20yd target competition.<\/p>\n

The camp was held at Phasels Wood\u00a0<\/a>in Herts, nr Kings Langley, which is @ an hour\u00a0from home.\u00a0 The campsite is vast with large open fields and wooded areas, which were perfect for the field events, clout and target in which we all participated.\u00a0 Paul and Jason were joined on this camp by Russ Kettley, the 5th’s Quatermaster, who looked after camp whilst we were competing and prepared all our meals.\u00a0 The weather was perfect for the event, with\u00a0glorious sunshine and most of all it remained dry.\u00a0 Other activities, which the Scouts took advantage of beetween events included the high ropes, assault course, crate stacking and zip wire.\u00a0 All the Scouts had a great time and are already looking forward to next year’s competition.\u00a0 Who’d have thought that only 4 weeks ago we were missing the boss at 10 yards and our standards have improved through practice and \u00a0instruction by our own archery leaders Lynn, Debbie, Maggie and Jim to whom we offer our thanks and to Russ for looking after us.<\/p>\n
