Adventurous trip to Dalguise for 1st Wick Scout Group

Cubs, Scouts and Explorer from 1st Wick Scout Group had a three-day trip filled with excitement and discovery at a forest adventure centre in Perthshire.

A total of 16 members and three leaders made the trip to PGL Dalguise, which offers a programme of exhilarating activities spanning land, water and sky.

These are designed to encourage bravery, teamwork and curiosity – helping the scouting members to build their confidence and self-esteem, develop friendships and overcome challenges while having fun.

Activities included Ambush, trapeze, zip-line, archery, abseiling, Jacob's ladder, a round-the-world quiz, fencing and Aeroball (a cross between basketball and volleyball on a trampoline).

Christine Waples of 1st Wick Scout Group said: "We would like to thank everyone who helped make it a fantastic trip, from Cub leader Jean Seddon, who organised the weekend, to ScotRail who made sure the group got to where they needed to be and to all the staff at PGL.

"The group had a wonderful time and hope to return next year."
