The district gathered at our boathouse to celebrate the life of Baden Powell. Our troop is quite small but everyone was present and we looked sharp. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the cubs as less than half arrived. But in general, turnout from the district was quite poor.

We started the day off with a parade and a Scout’s Own which was put together by 1^st Brackenhurst.

After the service, we took on the district in a canoe polo competition. There were some really good games, especially between the junior scout teams. As expected, our senior team were too strong for the opposition, although the Wychwood scouters team put up a good fight. At the end of the day, we won all three sections followed by the various teams from Wychwood.
