Cardboard Caving 2014<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

…<\/span>100 ar 62nd Bristol Spaner, Kartong Grotto Hundaarsdaag Utgava<\/span><\/p>\n

(100 years, 62nd Bristol Scouts, Cardboard Caves, Centenary Edition)<\/p>\n

\u00a0Over 350 building hours…<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0…and one hour to destroy, but then there were lots of destructive Scouts to help out.<\/span><\/p>\n

The caves were back! anyone that has ever done the caves before talks about it for years, anyone that hasn’t done it has heard so many tales they talk about it too. For those who build it they talk about increasing the 4 year gap between ‘caves’ to aid the recovery of sore elbows, bad joints from hovering in awkward places, fingers\u00a0bled raw from cardboard and cable ties\u00a0and of course worse of all: ‘tapeus tinnitus’.\u00a0It wakes\u00a0us up at night, (seriously…)<\/span><\/p>\n

“We just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU!<\/p>\n

You put a lot of time and effort into building the caves and it was all worth it. The cubs thought it was amazing! (As did the leaders\/parents)<\/p>\n

So well done to you all \ud83d\ude42 you have made a very big bunch of scouty people quite happy.”<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

“Cardboard caving, the hardest caving I’ve ever done (harder than the Daren Cilau entrance series) two grazed elbows and the most claustrophoic I’ve ever felt in my life. Best fun I’ve had in a while – cheers\u00a062nd<\/span> & everyone else who put the effort into building the epic adventure, my Cub says it was the best cub night ever!”<\/span><\/td>\n“getting lovely feedback they all reckon best thing they have done at Beavers! so thanks – how do we follow that !!!???”<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Feedback from caving was as expected most thought it was one of the best things they have ever done in there small lives so a massive thanks from parents, myself & rest of leadership team to all the people who made the caving possible for a job so well done, again a huge hit with Beavers even the ones who got upset, apparently, so please pass this on to the rest of the cave dwellers\u00a0– so chuffed they enjoyed it so much.”<\/p>\n<\/td>\n
