Look what I made!
Four Guides from our unit joined Festival 2004 at the National Scout Centre in Scotland at the beginning of August. This was a massive international camp with over 400 Guides and Scouts from all over the world, including Uganda, America, Sweden and Ukraine. We had an action packed week with activities from hillwalking to water sports to caving underground!
Our Guides were together on a subcamp called Up Helly Aa, named after a festival that takes place in the north of Scotland. Each subcamp was named after a Festival that happens all over the world. These included Christmas, Hogmanay, Thanksgiving, Oktoberfest, Diwali, Harvest, Rodeo and Mardi Gras. Our Guiders were camping with the Senior Section, celebrating the Peace Festival.
If activities during the day weren't enough we also enjoyed entertainment in the evening (after washing up of course!). We watched clowns, disco'd and ceilidh'd the night away. Here's some photos from the week, if you want to add some, let me know
The opening ceremony, including the Festival song!
