Four teams of Scouts went to London to join nearly 8,000 other Scouts from around the country with the 2024 Monopoly Run. The day started off wet but the weather improved and Scouts followed the route around the Monopoly Board, with a few additions such as Hamleys(!). 

In late February Scouts enjoyed an activity weekend at Bentley Copse for the 2024 Frost Camp. Nearly 30 activities were available includling climbing, zip wire, archery, crate stackign and more. The silent disco on Saturday night was a favorite.

It lived up to the name with temperatures briefly dropping below zero, meaning Scouts got their sub-zero badge. 

As part of the Chef Badge scouts cooked a tasty three course meal in under 90 minutes, including a starter, main and dessert. 

Nearly 20 Scouts from 5th Guildford took part in helping out with maintenance at Bentley Copse Scout Campsite - including helping put down a new floor in the marquee and keeping the site tidy. They also found time for some fun activities including crate stacking and around half camped overnight. 

5th Guildford Scouts joined other Guildford groups for a camp at Boidier Hurst, near Box Hill. The focus was on the Naturalist and Forester badges.
