The daily photo challenge
Grab your camera
While we continue to follow official guidance by keeping apart from weekly meetings, we have come up with a daily photo challenge.
Each day the Explorers will be given a new word, If they send in a photo relating to the word and is the best photo sent in that day, they win a small prize! The Explorer with the most best photos at the end of month wins a bigger prize. - So get snapping!
Daily Challenges
Daily challenges are being set by Hudson and Birmingham Scout Count to help keep all Scouts entertained while we don't meet in our usual way.
A daily word challenge, UK Cryptic clues and many more simple brain thinking tasks get sent to the Explorers by using our Social media and our private Whats App group.
