April Fools Day April 1, 2007

Posted by akela in : Cubs , add a comment

Well how many of you out there were caught out with the Aprils Fools Jokes?

I thought im not going to get caught out this year, until my brother Martin called home at 3pm this afternoon.

He said get the kettle on im on the M40 motorway. What we said.

For those that dont know my brother lives in Utah, USA 4774 miles away

We heard Aoife my neice in the background and Martin said he was going to a buisness meeting.

We fell for it, they were all tucked up in bed at home in Utah (7hrs behind)

Has anyone else been the subject of an April Fool today ??Lets us know by replying to this post.

2009 - Cub International

Posted by akela in : Cubs , add a comment

This week I’m off with a few other cub leaders to visit Holland and surrounding areas ready to start planning our next International trip in 2009.

Over the past years Rea Valley cubs have been taking cubs away internationally and after such good feedbacks and enjoyable times we are once again planning our next trip for August 2009.

We had 8 cubs attend the last trip internationally.
