Coven 2006 Day 2

The camp site at dawn this morning
Due to the excitement of the occasion, it was a short night!

Queuing for Breakfast

Duly served

And eaten

The serving hatch

Football in free time

Inside the tepee

Duties very much along the lines of the old Youth Hostel Regimes Laches Classroom

Hoovering being taken seriously

Leaf clearance

Sweeping the marquee - a difficult job

And in the Den

Being briefed about rescuing pilots who have crashed in the woods. With the aid of radio links with base control, the teams had to locate the pilots (dummies), rescue them, put legs in splints, stretcher them to safety and build a shelter for them.

How to rescue the pilot

Making a splint

Stretcher options

Red pilot found

Base control

Making the tent

Leg in a splint

Canoes on the canal

The canteen staff have a break

Team building skills - the bake bean challenge. Using ropes and a rubber band to lift the beans from the stove without stepping inside the circle

This one speaks for itself

Crossing shark infested waters with
three milk crates and two planks

Whoops!

The final stretch
