A day to remember
...for Beavers, Cubs, Rainbows and Brownies
by xxx by Holly Sloan by James To end Traynor a fantastic day at Junior Poacher, 2,000 Beavers, Cubs, Rainbows and Brownies joined together in the main arena for the closing ceremony. Brought into the arena by stilt walkers, the Beavers, Cubs, Rainbows and Brownies screamed
delightfully as they swang their neckers, a colour of orange and pink illuminating the arena. Many of the young people who attended Junior Poacher are the future legends of Poacher 2021, and all cheered in enthusiasm at the prospect of coming back
for the week in four years’ time. After thanking the leaders and staff who made the day possible, our young visitors were left enchanted by a magnificent firebreathing display by Code Red. Mollie, 7, from 1st Wragby Brownies described it
as very good. “I love the way they use the fire to help them dance, it was amazing,” she said. The word amazing was used repeatedly to describe the experience, alongside fun, fantastic and epic. We look forward to seeing all who attended Junior Poacher again in 2021!
