Around 500 Scouts, Explorer Scouts, Guides and leaders camped at Bentley Copse’s Frost Camp over the weekend of February 25-27.

The camp had been postponed from January due to Omicron and was nearly cancelled because of the recent storms.

But youngsters got to enjoy a weekend of activities, which included laser clay pigeon shooting, tree-climbing, air pistols, crate stacking, an adventure course, pedal go karts, tomahawk throwing, a cave maze, laser tag and Jacob’s Ladder.

“There haven’t been many opportunities like this due to Covid so it was great to go in a Cave Maze,” said Issac, 12, from Haywards Heath.

Max, 11, also from Haywards Heath, said: “It was something different and fun, I liked the zipwire as it was fast and exciting.”

There was also a campfire in the evening, as well as a silent disco.
