In June we set off to Coventry to attend ‘The Festival’ camp, a laid-back camp in the green fields of Rough Close campsite, with activities ranging from climbing to crate stacking and crafts to inflatables. Evening entertainment included a DJ set from James Buckley, better known as Jay from The Inbetweeners, and a set from a group of Beatboxers, which was amazingly entertaining. On Sunday we participated in a few of the team games, but unfortunately we just weren’t heavy enough to win the Tug-of-War. Two weeks later we were off to Cheltenham for the Explorer Scout and Scout Network ‘Sun Run’, an activity packed camp which never fails to deliver the sunny weather. Members made sure they took advantage of all that was on offer. On Saturday a number of Explorers and Scout Network members from Cheshire took part in the Moon Run, a 13-mile team race with one team finishing 2nd, 3rd and 7th places - Check out the video on our YouTube channel!! Then in September, 46 members took to the M5 on route to Bristol for the annual ‘Intense’ Network camp. Cheshire was the largest Network on the camp - around three times the size of the next largest county. Go team!!!

NEW LEADER!
MARTIN JONES NEW: Network Leader (Knutty Network) Well I’m only 48, married, two children (one in Network, one in Explorers). Got thrown out of Cubs in the seventies and it was thirty years before they would let me back in again -
better late than never! Really enjoyed being an Explorer Leader, but got diverted into Network by my DC and can really see the potential. Interests include archery, cycling and fishing, when I get time off from Scouting. Looking forward to meeting you knutsford@cheshirenetwork.org.uk
