Phoenix ESU

 

Meeting Time: Tuesday  8:00 – 10:00

Although we are only a small explorer unit compared to others, we are extremely active, taking part in activities from climbing and abseiling to diving and from shooting to hiking.

We take part in many local scouting competitions, like the Mad march hare night hike, not aiming to win (but that is a bonus) but to have a great deal of fun. Other competitions  include the two Rings day hike, the county shooting competition, the district cyclo-cross and the Overland back packing weekend.

Expeditions are a common occurrence with the unit, with recent trips to Snowdonia National Park and the Lake District where they did some serious hill walking, including the climbing of Scarfell Pike.
