Summer 2019 - Rivelin Valley River Walk
Every year the last meeting of the summer term before the break the 229th Scout tackle the Rivelin Valley river walk.
In 2019 we were joined by a Scout Group form the Hallam District and a large number of Scout's, Explorers, Leaders and Parent Helpers all got rather wet.
The activity begins at Carver Fields off Hagg Lane Crosspool where the group head down the paths through the woods to the starting point for the river walk. There is a section of the walk were 'river swim' is a better description as the water is around chest height. The river walk is always very well attended, enjoyed by all, even though the finish at the Rails Road carpark and waiting parents with towels and warm clothes is always a welcome sight.
July 2019 - Back Woods Cooking
Cooking on an open fire, also referred to as Back Woods Cooking, here you can see our cubs cooking jacket potatoes, pizza, baked apples, banana (with a chocolate flake) and hot dogs wrapped in cabbage leaves! (sounds bizarre, but works)! a core task of Cubs and often put into practice at Camps.

May 2019 - Inner Viking
A big part of cubs is learning in a subtle and importantly fun way of how to stay safe. We had a great time at Battle Axe (https://www.battleaxesheffield.co.uk). They certainly helped us discover our inner Viking! The Cubs were thrilled when we told them they were going to throw an Axe and hammer and nails into tree trunks! Our programme is dynamic and diverse, but most of all fun and helps build memories that last a lifetime.

Camping and building camp fires are the back bone of the scouting movement. The Cubs gain so much confidence at Camp and we do so many activities to keep them busy and of course learning vital life skills.
March 2019 - Cubs in the Community
Working in the community is a key part of Scouting, here you see Cubs and Scouts working together on the DIY badge. Over the course of a few meetings and extra DIY classes on a Saturday, the cubs and scouts of 229th Greenhill Methodist made a selection of planters, bird boxes and herb gardens which we sold at Greenhill Library farmers market. As well as raising funds for the group, we taught the Cubs and Scouts the value of upcycling. All products used were destined to be burnt or sent to landfill. Raw materials included wood reclaimed from a leaders DIY kitchen re fit, pallets found in skips and at the side of the road and environmentally friendly wood stain found languishing in leaders and parents sheds, that were destined for the tip due to colour scheme changes at home.
