A new day..a new adventure!

Easter Camp 2010 - Day 3

If you thought that the second day was jam packed just wait and see day 3! The morning kicked off with the usual routine of PT, self admin, flag break and breakfast, which was followed by an interesting treasure hunt themed estimation and ranging challenge prepared by Cremona. The challenge took the form of a treasure hunt, where the ventures would need to find clues in order to find the location of each challenge and the next clue. Each challenge consisted of a series of estimation and ranging exercises which the ventures needed to complete before proceeding to the next one. As lunch time neared the ventures headed back to the Unit's area to prepare the climbing gear for after lunch.

"Top of the World" - Gharghur

After a nutritious lunch and the much anticipated arrival of the VSL, the ventures packed themselves and the gear into the leaders' cars and headed for Gharghur in search of a great session of climbing. We were also joined by some other friendly climbers who happened to be at the site which is popularly known as 'Top of the World' for it's great views of the northern part of the island. Though as the ventures quickly realised, it wasn't gonna be an easy session! The ventures attempted several routes though only a few managed to reach the top...though no need to worry as there's gonna be loads of opportunities to practice in the near future!

Plato's Cave?!? Just kidding it's the Unit leaders!

As dusk started to set in, the Unit went about striking the rigging and heading back to campsite in preparation for a traditionally epic night! Like in the past couple of Easter Camps the Unit decided to have one night dedicated entirely to having a great time together and literally just hanging out as a Unit in a truly scouting environment. This time the Unit also decided to bring along a couple of ex-ventures who had decided to move on to other things, namely George and Keith. The night took the form of a steak night, where each venture cooked a great piece of meat and some also added a peppered sauce! The night was filled with loads of laughs and memories, and coupled with George's guitar skills, provided a great atmosphere.

George rockin' away...

A great way to end the last day of full activities camp!
