World Scout Day

Today is World Scout Day, and we joined with other Cubs and Scouts from within our District for games of Milo Cricket. Cricket Tasmania provided the equipment and some coaching, and the weather was perfect (although a little cold for me taking photos and NOT in my Lazypatch!).
Lauren had a turn at wicket keeping
fielding
Ummm - not sure - maybe practising to be an AFL umpire?
and batting.
Patrick also had a turn at everything and was very good with the bat
and soon warmed up!
It was a great day to get together with other Cubs and Scouts, and to catch up with old friends...
and make some new ones!It was handy being so close to our place, and at the end of the afternoon, the kids wanted to walk home, so we had plenty of exercise! We've been a bit "housebound" lately with all the wet and cold weather, so it's great to have some weather where we feel like getting out and doing things again. Bring on Spring I say!
