Did you hear us on the radio?

If you were listening to Radio Oxford during the 11-15th February, you may have heard some of our members on the Lilly Mitchell afternoon show.

Kidlington Scout Group was the show's 'club of the week' and from Monday to Friday, every show featured an interview with one of our members or leaders. Lilly Mitchell had visited the Scout Centre the previous Thursday to record the interviews while Jacala Cub Pack and Cherwell Beaver Colony were holding their meetings.

Joe from Cubs and Annabelle from Beavers talked about how proud they were of achieving their Chief Scout Bronze Award and explained how they'd had to complete a lot of challenge badges for the award.

Sea Scout and Cub Young Leader Jake spoke about how he enjoys being able to spend his summer meetings boating on the river at our boat base in Wolvercote and shared his favourite memory of rafting during a camping weekend by the river. Rafting was also a favourite activity for Cub Megan, 

and she also talked to Lilly about how much she loves being able to camp outside.

On the last show of the week, Jacala Cub Pack's Akela Becca explained that she became a leader because she'd enjoyed being in both Girlguiding and Scouts as a child and recognised that those experiences are only possible with volunteers running the groups. She wanted to provide experiences for young people like she'd had as a Brownie, Guide and Venture Scout and also has a lot of fun doing it!

Everyone did a great job and spoke really clearly, well done!
