Hi from Charnwood Leicestershire

Hi everybody my name is Simon

 

I have just joined the group. I live in the Charnwood area of Leicestershire where in my spare time I am a Scout leader with my local Scout Group.

 

In our Scout group we like to teach young people the benefits of the outdoors and outdoor living such as bush craft and survival techniques.

 

We are always looking for new ways of keeping kids between the ages of 11 and 14 away from tarmac and the Xbox. So if anybody has anything they can offer in the ways of a skill demonstration and knowledge let me know. We always have venison on our camps thanks to a parent who shoots.

 

Each year we hold a bush craft / survival camp over a weekend where the kids sleep in hammocks and tarps or just in the hedge bottom, no tents and cook on open fires all weekend. We usually give them a pigeon and a trout each and show them how to prep them and they then go and cook this on a fire. Our next camp is next month and I need a new supplier of pigeons, either fresh or frozen but in the feather. Can any body help?

 

Thanks

 

Simon

Nothing like spitting shot out round the camp fire.

A rabbit might be in order, if I can remember how to prep them,

Wot - no four legged wildlife?
