Return

Today I should be back from what has been a Camp experience where I have spent time away from my home region having travelled by road which does give you lovely views and the ability to take a twenty minute break from driving to stretch your legs and take everything in.

Because I am a Wolf Cub in Spirit, I have taken those values with my on this journey in my interactions with others in play with my friends and in exploring myself and the world around me.

Scouting publications of the past

Scouting has had publications over the year although today many young people or more likely to read either a web magazine or social media where Scouting may have an official sub site or page or their own site which I know my local Scout pack has.

This said there's something perhaps nostalgic in me that loves covers like this Winter scene from1963.

Or this that is from just a couple of months later showing a group of scouts meeting up one evening on their bicycles.

You'll note unlike some of later generations these are quite comfortable to be out in the winter evenings in their shorts and long socks with green garters.

I spent all winter in my shorts outside and found after acclimatizing, I soon felt fine and actually it was healthier for me  having less problems with colds and snuffles than when I was more wrapped up.
