Our Scout Section today has sent out letters to two groups in Australia to hopefully gain great pen pals and new friends. We hope they get replies back soon.
Skip, Rikki and Jacala have now completed all training with regards to navigation of the 3 peaks and now are concentrating on general fitness.
With all 3 Peaks Conquered individually, we have all confidence in our determination to complete the challenge.
Wish us luck?
