Strategy 2 - More photos




















Strategy Weekend

Although Friday night was very wet, and Saturday was pretty damp, this was a great weekend.  Plenty of independence for the Scouts.   A 8 - 10 mile walk on the Saturday with challenges to win points at about 25 different checkpoints was the main feature from a Scouting point of view, but for the Scouts I am guessing the music, disco, games and entertainments on the Sunday were also very good.

About 2000 Scouts attended, with 254 teams taking part on the Saturday challenge.  Meriden came 55th and 122nd.  Great effort, but next year we expect 2 teams in the top 20!

Meriden Sunday Funday

Charity day on the village green.  Lots of fun with silly games including the Scout Fruit Machine, bounce pong and the coin toss.  Lovely weather and a lot of fun.  Plus we got a new Scout mascot!
