Last session started with adventure training at Lochgoilhead with climbing, canoeing, hillwalking and streamwalking.

Our programme included: IT, swimming at Scotstoun, indoor climbing at Ibrox, fire lighting, first aid, sailing at Yorkhill, camp cooking, navigation, striking camp, talks from international travellers and meals cooked nearly every Friday.

We always start each night with games in the hall and recently purchased a unihoc kit for our games cupboard.
