Our expedition challenge

Back at the end of last term, 5 Scouts along with Leaders from the Group set off to complete their expedition challenge badge.

The Scouts met at Patterton Station on the Saturday morning and were given a set of clues to find their way around the City Centre of Glasgow before heading back to Central Station where they boarded a train to Lanark.

Upon arrival in Lanark, they were given a map, compass and grid references and they then set about finding their way to New Lanark where they had some challenges to complete.

Having found out about the history of New Lanark and what it had to offer, they made their way back to the Lanark Scout Hall where they prepared a barbecue and wrote up their reports on their exploration.

In the evening, Fhionna joined us for an opportunity to thank her for everything she had done during her time as Scout Leader before she headed South for her next adventure. 

Congratulations to them all on completing their Expedition Challenge Award and thanks to Heather, Gillian, Fhionna, Magnus and the 2nd Lanark for their help during the weekend.
