Wizard spring camp
Wizard Boem got lost and, in despair, sent a letter to the Beavers. In this letter was the location of his spellbook. The Beavers had to collect magic wands by smuggling them without getting tagged.
After enjoying a nice meal by the fire and a good night’s sleep, the Beavers received their next letter from the wizard. In the letter was a picture of moss. The Beavers quickly went searching for the moss in the forest. There they found the ingredients for a magic potion.
The Beavers fought with giants and dwarves in an exciting game. After winning, they found the wizard’s hat. The Beavers flew through a parcours on their broomsticks and played wizard tag. Finally, it was time to prepare the magic potion, and now Wizard Boem can finally return home. 🧙♂️✨
The junglepath
Today the Beavers took the junglepath through the forest. They climbed over fallen tree trunks, ran through the tall grass, and played with big branches. After this adventurous track, we played a smuggling game. The Beavers were divided into two teams. One team had to smuggle the coins, and the other team had to stop them. It was an exciting battle, but in the end only one team managed to collect the most coins.
We also played a game of “buskruit.” It is a variation of hide-and-seek in which the base is a ball. The ball can be kicked away, and when that happens all the Beavers who had been found are free again. They then have to quickly hide once more.
We ended the morning by enjoying some delicious fresh strawberries. 🍓
Painting and lasergaming
A few weeks ago, the Beavers built birdhouses. Today they were finally painted. The new Beavers, who didn’t have a birdhouse, also made beautiful paintings. They painted houses, people, and lots of colorful stripes. While the paintings were drying, we played lasertag. The two teams shot at each other and hid behind large obstacles. We also played lots of hoop games, such as the tag game “hoop away” and a relay race. To finish off the morning, we also played a game of block football.
Minigolf
Today the Beaver put their golfing skills to the test. We went to a place that had 18 holes. The trails had colourfull obstacles, jumps and bumps. Many hole-in-ones were also made. Do you also want to go on wild adventures? Sign up for a trial day, today!!!
Carnaval with the Beavers and Cubs
This evening, we celebrated Carnaval with the beavers and cubs. The night was filled with games, music, and lots of fun, and of course, we wrapped it up with a polonaise.
Regional movie day
Today was the regional movie day. All the Beavers from the region Eindhoven got together to watch a movie. We watched the secret live of pets 2. There was a lot of excitement and laughing. There was also a lot of chips eating. After the movie there was a picknick. All the Beavers could eat as much bread and drink as much lemonade as they’d like. To end this very nice morning, we also did a lot of running outside.
Friendsday Beavers
This week it was friendsday again. On this day every Beaver can bring all their friends to explore what being a scout is like. We began with playing block football and hoop tag. After running a lot, we walked to a different field in the forest. Here we played the smuggling coins game. One team had to smuggle coins from one side of the field towards the other sides, while the other team would try and tag them. After this, we burned marshmallows above a fire. All the Beavers ate a ton of s’mores and had a lot of fun. To end of this fine morning, we played a game of red light, green light.
Building birdhouses
One of the Beaver rules is that a Beaver should always be good to nature. That is why we helped the birds today by building birdhouses. The supervisors sawed the different wooden pieces that were needed. Then the Beavers started their building adventure. With help they built the most beautiful birdhouses that the birds will surely love.
We also played a lot of different football games. We started with Belgium football. In this game you can only score and the wrong side of the goal. Instead of from the front you can only score through the back of the goal. Afterwards we played a game in which the Beavers were split into teams. Every team had to throw a hoop and get the ball into the hoop in the least amounts of kicks. We ended this morning with block football. What an adventurisitc morning this was!
Turn around day
Today the roles at the Beavers turned around. They got to decide all the adventures they did that day. We started by walking pretty far, until we reached a playground. After playing for a while, we walked further to a field. There we played hoop tag. After returning to the club house, we roasted sausages above a fire and at these happily.
Fun in the snow
Even though all the other beavers stayed inside their holes, the GFB2 Beavers went on an adventure in the snow. We started by having a big snowball fight and afterwards building a snowman. We then visted the Karpendonkse plas which was still partly frozen. With help, the Beavers threw big balls of snow in the lake, hoping the ice would crack. They were succesful :). We also played hoop football. In this game everyone will have their own hoop and they need to roll the ball into the hoops of other players. We finished this nice morning with a warm cup of delicious tea around the fire.
