Our next bag pack is at Morrison's at Hinckley which is on Saturday 2nd May.
Read moreWell done to Logan & Jack who won the Cub Ghosthunt last Saturday night and claimed the Alan Flavell Trophy for First Bedworth Walton Pack. We are all very proud of you both. Cub Ghosthunt is a District event and Packs from Nuneaton, Bedworth & Bulkington took part on the event. The Cubs had to walk around a route completing challenges and earning points as they went. Challenges on Saturday included balloon rockets, dream catchers, archery, holographic writing, horse shoe hurling , giant jenga, Brazilian head dresses and a bucket ball challenge. Logan & Jack completed all of these challenges with great skill to win the event but like all of the Cubs on the event they also had a great time.

Read moreOn Sunday 22nd February Scouts, Explorers and Adults from 1st Bedworth were out in force to bag pack at the ASDA Store in Nuneaton. The colleagues at Nuneaton ASDA were welcoming and friendly and we would like to thank them very much for giving us this opportunity to raise funds in their store. We are truly grateful to the generous people of the Nuneaton area who donated a fantastic £1237.66 to our funds. Our founder Lord Baden-Powell expected Scouts to earn the money they need through their own honest efforts. This is a principal which still holds true today and is why you will see Scouts bag packing rather than holding street collections, though of course we will always assist other worthy causes with their street collections or similar. This is the first of a number of Bag Packs we will be doing this year. Look out for us in Bedworth Tesco on Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th April !

There is always a sense of competition. By the time we finished collecting sticks there is always a pile of sticks as big as a sky scraper.
Read moreI really love abseiling because of the trill and rush of adrenalin, plus it is really cool and fun. I used to hate it before I tried it but now I really love it. I also like hiking & going on long walks. I like adventurous activities, this is because I love sport/.
Read moreCooking is my favourite because I can always improve and I can share it once I am finished. Doing competitions helps to improve skill, speed and knowledge while being fun at the same time. You also van see how others cook and present their food, so you can steal ideas and use them yourself.
