170606 Cubs

Tonight the Cubs started working towards the Backwoods Cooking Activity Badge and had a great time up at our District campsite in Pease Pottage.  Having been given some safety instructions relating to open fires in general the cubs were then treated to a demonstration on how to build a pyramid fire and then light it without matches by using a striker.  Each Cub then had a go with this small but very useful bit of equipment.

 

We then enjoyed cooking parcels of banana/ chocolate on the embers of the main fire and then toasting marshmallows which tasted amazing sandwiched between two digestive biscuits!
