DC4B - Royal Logistic Corps

Huge thanks go to Andy Robertshaw at the Royal Logistic Corps Museum for hosting a fantastic visit for DC4B.  As well as showing all 40 of us the museum, he gave us a great talk all about army rations through the ages and we got to cook our own food out in the grounds.

DC4B - K'nex fun

Tuesday, 09 February 2010 11:10

After some last minute changes to plan, our January Dangerous Club for Boys session was a big success.  More than 30 lads and dads worked through the challenges set by Gary from Planet K'nex, and as the afternoon passed, the racing got more serious!  If you've not come across it before, K'nex is a "construction and building toy" somewhere between Lego and Meccano.  Huge thanks go to Gary for helping run the event at such short notice and well done to Thomas and Mike who won the overall prize.

Here's our provisional plan for DC4B for the rest of the year including archery at a different and much larger venue. We’re just in the process of booking venues so the plan and dates are still provisional - we'll update this as each event is confirmed.

So here’s what we hope to be doing for the rest of the year:

• 7th March Visit to the British Army Royal Logistic Corps Museum - Confirmed - £5
• 16th May Dragon boats
• 11th July Gravity kart racing – build a kart and bring it along to race (family session)
• 12th Sep Archery - Bisley - Minimum age: a strong 6 year old - Confirmed - £10.
• 14th Nov Survival crafts (shelter building etc)
