14th DELP Pfadfinder Stamm invited the Troop to have their weekly meeting with them, and it was a blast!
During the first 30 minutes, some of the Scouts played a (not proper, but still fun) game of volleyball, while the others played soccer. Afterwards, some of them went to check out the (controlled) veld fire that was nearby, and soon, everyone was in the hall and playing a game of their choice. Some played Scrabble, some played Werewolf, and some played Pictionary
Thank you again 14th DELP Pfadfinder Stamm for having us! We hope you enjoyed it just as much as we did!

FIELD DAY - by the Patrol Leader of Rhinos:
From the 9 to 11 August, 5th took part in Field Day which is one of the big district camps in our annual calendar. It was loads of fun and was a great first camp form many of our new scouts. Field Day is made up of many different competitions happening at the same time and we won 4 events, namely Senior Shooting, Cooking, Akela Challenge and Middle Orienteering. Overall we came 4th, well done to 10th Arcadia who won this year.

The Cubs joined hundreds of others from across Gauteng at #CubFunDay, this year at the @joburgparkszoo, where they participated in dozens of fun bases, in addition to seeing the many fascinating animals housed at the zoo. A great (if tiring!) day. @scoutsgauteng

On Saturday last week, the Cubs (and Meerkats!) from 5th and 35th Pretoria Sea Scouts came together for Mandela Day. They first sang songs to the elderly folks, and afterwards some of them learned to crochet while others played board games. The Cubs also gave coloured bookmarks as gifts. Overall a very sweet and successful #MandelaDay! @scoutssa

Last Sunday, a Leopards patrol member organised a Discoverer Hike from our hall, all the way to 35th Pretoria Sea Scouts and back. A big thanks to the 12 Scouts (from 4 Troops) who made the hike a success.
