At the time of going to press last term the Scouts were in camp at Aldby Park, near Stamford Bridge, where we spent a most enjoyable long week-end from July 18th to July 23rd.
We had four patrols present for the first time, the " Hawks " being the newly formed patrol.
Bathing at the Mill at Buttercrambe was most enjoyable. Cooking was done by each patrol in turn for the whole troop, each taking a day, so everyone got practice and experience.
The Sunday afternoon was set apart as Visitors' Day, and we were delighted to welcome a record number of parents and friends to the camp site.
In the evening we attended the village Church at Buttercrambe. On the Monday afternoon we all went on the River Derwent from Stamford Bridge, some in canoes and some in rowing boats.

Woodpigeons :—Butler, Buckler, Denby, Cole, Anderson.
