St Chris’ Lakes Summer Program

This week we had 52 young people, 9 really helpful helpers (the Otters) and a team of really great staff stay at Great Tower Scout Camp.

The weeks activities consisted of a mixture of Caving, Climbing, Mountain Scrambling, Gill Scrambling, Abseiling, Kayaking, Climbing, Canoeing and a days Team Task with a who load of fun in the evenings, a visit to the beach and some of the best food you could wish to consume.

Thanks to the dedicated team of teachers for bringing the team away, this course has been running for many years due to their commitment.

    Thought I would start the St Chris comment frenzy.

    On tender-hooks for the video! Thanks for an awesome week. The children had the most amazing, self-affirming week that they will remember for a long time. Team building stuff on Thursday was SO well organised and fun. Looking forward to next year :)

    Pat and I organised the trip again this year: I can honestly say that it was one of the absolute best ! Dan the Man got together a fantastic set of instructors and locations / activities, and combined with our own team of superb staff and Otters we all created a week that I know the kids will always remember. Thanks to everyone – especially all the kids who were up for some pretty scary stuff – for a fantastic week.
