Falcon Pack at Oxley shield

The past weekend saw all the Packs of Ware & District attending the Oxley shield competition at Rigery Farm. This is a camping and Scouting skills competition that has been held since 1929.

A natural collage for the Wildgoose handicraft. A lion and a dove that came third. A great weekend overall. Many thanks to the team and everyone who helped in anyway.


Scouting magazine challenge

In the September edition of Scouting magazine there was a challenge to bring old Group photos back to life. We have a copy of a photo of 3rd Ware Wolf Cubs at Ware station, so last week Falcon Pack went down to the station and we took some more photos!



Here are the Pack in 1933 with their two Leaders.
