113th group birthday

A selection of images from our recent 113th birthday party. We spent the day doing various activities as a team like putting up a tent, sniffing out a satsuma hidden with other items in the row of socks, carrying eggs round an obstacle course. Hungry hippos on skate boards gathering tennis balls. We had a great afternoon. Two Leader's got 5 and 25 year Service Awards and another was awarded his Wood Beads.
