The first Squirrels in the Group and in Gloucester being invested – 2023 This year the Squirrels have celebrated their first birthday with a special cake, they have also been on their first joint sleepover with our Beavers where they played games, learned how to make a shelter, watched a movie and made chocolate chip cakes. They also joined the rest of the Group roller skating. Two of the Squirrels camped with the rest of the Group at Trac for a weekend and nine of the rest joined in the fun for the day on Saturday. They had fun on pedal karts, zip wire, stand up paddle boards, paddle boats, string trail and lots of other activities. Below you can see a diagram of the position of badges and awards for Squirrels.
