OK, I booked it will you come?
I have booked Forest camp scout camp for a meet up on the weekend of 20-22 April. Details as previous meets only thing that has changed is the cost, it will now cost £4 per person per night.
For those that haven't been before Forest Camp is a scout camp just outside of Delamere Forest, it has full facilities (if required), plenty of camping space, a small lake, a larger lake just outside the boundary, mixed woodland with lots of birch, lots of rabbits and squirrells running round (despite fishabens best efforts ), and the trees could have been planted with hammocks in mind!
Here is a link to previous meets, http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community/showthread.php?t=16225
Everyone is welcome, of all ages and abiliies/skills, it is primarily a social meet, with skills swapping going on rather than sitting down teaching/learning, but usually a few lessons happen.
Answers to FAQs about meet ups,
Yes you can sleep in a tent, but there is an extra charge for caravans :BlueTeamE
It doesn't matter if you have never been before,
Yes kids and dogs are welcome, as long as you keep them under control! But depending on staff on site they may have to stay on a lead (I don't take mine)
There will be someone to show you how to put up your new hammock/tarp, so bring it along, same goes for any new kit you aren't sure of!
You don't have to show up for all of it, just drop in if you want
Pay (me) on the day, just remember your wallet!!!
You provide your own food, there is a shop/garage just up the road if you forget anything
I will post map and directions later, if anyone has questions or ideas ask away!
