2nd Onchan Manannan Pack at Eary Cushlin

Over the weekend 11. – 13. March, twenty two Cubs, four Leaders and one dog, from 2nd Onchan’s Manannan Cub Scout Pack, went to Eary Cushlin.  On Friday night after a brief talk we went for a nice walk up Cronk Ny Arrey Laa, we actually didn’t make it all the way up as the weather wasn’t too brilliant and most of the Cubs were very tired, we made it about ¾ of the way up the hill.

Back at Eary Cushlin we had a few games of Pictionary and a Quiz.  It was then time for Supper and Bed, it was about 3am when all the Cubs were asleep, the next morning was a early start with everyone up by 6.30am, after Breakfast we had room inspection, and the Cubs had free time where they played football and made Dens around Eary Cushlin, we then went into Onchan for a game of Laser Blast.  After Laser Blast we had lunch in Onchan Park and then went swimming at the NSC where all the Cubs had fun on the slides and by splashing Akela.  We then went back to the Scout Hall for some games and a Chippy Tea.  We entered two teams in the Super Splash competition where we did very well.  The other Cubs stayed at the Scout Hall and watched a few films and played some games in the Scout Hall.  We arrived back at Eary Cushlin at 10pm where we watched another film before everyone headed to their rooms.   Sunday morning was a early start for Akela who was up at 7am while the other Leaders were still asleep, after Breakfast and Inspection we did some Bivouac Building in the plantation and a treasure hunt.  It was then time for lunch, after lunch we awarded prizes and converted all points into sweets.  We finished of the weekend with a few Wide Games.  Everyone had a fantastic weekend and all the Cubs had good things to say about the Cub Camp.

I want to say a big thank you to all the leaders, and the dog, for their hard work and dedication to the cubs in supporting them with all they do. The boys had a brilliant time over the weekend and will remember their encounters forever. They could not stop talking about all the activities and the great time they had. Well done everyone and here's to many more.
