Scouts - Be Prepared
Has anyone heard about our
Patrol Leader who took
pancake shaker bottle mix to
Moreton Island, and forgot to
take the frypan to cook it in.
What happened to the old
scout motto, ‘Be Prepared’.
PL’s at Moreton Island
The annual patrol leaders
camp was held at Moreton
Island and was attended by 70
Scouts from Brisbane North
region.
Our troop had 4 Scouts at the
adventure. On arrival n the
Island, we were advised that
we would have to camp at the
Ben Ewa camp site because
the facilities at The Wrecks
campsite could not handle that
many people.
It was a great weekend with a
trip to The Dessert for sand
tobogganing, and some scuba
diving around The Wrecks.
Some scouts said that the best
part was the trip over and back
in the MiCat which has an
excellent cafe.
Scouts and Venturers set out on Kin Kin hike
Lake MacDonald is the starting point for the hike
We arrived at the Scout Campsite at Lake MacDonald around 9.00 PM on Friday night. There were already several groups who had set up their camp sites so we were especially quiet so as not to disturb them. We made supper and then off to bed as we planned an early start next morning. We left he campsite at 8.30 the next morning, but unfortunately, all did not go according to plan. Lucky, that we had he 2 way radios with us and were able to seek assistance from Opossum to get us back on track. We camped at Kin Kin overnight and then set out for the second leg of our hike on Sunday morning. We were please to see Opossum, Kim and Sam’s Farther, Rod, waiting at the destination, to transport us back to Brisbane.
