Fox and Badger’s first Sleepover as leaders in charge of the Beaver section saw 18 Beaver Scouts spend the weekend at Brean Sands in Somerset in late April. Fox, Badger, Rainbow and Squirrel (a brave parent volunteer) laid on a packed programme of activities that included crafts, beach games, a hike and a visit to the leisure park. Everyone seemed to have a brilliant time, and the Beavers (especially the younger ones) earned lots of badges to add to their uniforms. Here you’ll find a bumper gallery of pics from the weekend – thanks to Squirrel for taking so many photos!
