Oxley Shield

This weekend I am off to The Oxley Shield. Each September Ware and District invite each Cub Pack to enter a team of six cubs into a skills and camping competition. The teams are made up of two eight year olds, two nine year olds and two ten year olds.

3rd Ware usually try to be inclusive and let as many young people as possible join events and so because the numbers are restricted on this one the two Cub packs do strive to ensure a variety of Cubs take part. This means the twelve Cubs who attend may or may not have taken part before depending on the ages of the Cubs at the time of the competition and the family commitments of the Cubs.

It is a fun weekend and is rounded off with a handicaft competition.
