The 'OWLS' woodland elves..!

A Big 'thank you' to Fingal County Council for funding a First Aid course for the 'OWLS' Junior leaders, under our youth development programme. After an intensive three days on the course they all passed this afternoon. Which means, more 'OWLS' public events, survival parties and activity camps as we now have a team of First Aid Responders. I asked for a photo and was sent the attached. Apparently it was them enjoying a nice treat (paid for by themselves) after the course.. Don't worry, it will be burnt mealworms at camp tomorrow.

At the start of today, somebody send 'How are you going to get a fire going in all this rain'. Fear not..! Budding campers can achieve anything. Here's a picture of one of the scientist giving the toasting marshmallow safety talk and others toasting their marshmallows. In the rain..!

My infection is starting to spread..!
Now keeping my fingers crossed that individuals (buddy scientist) on the 'OWLS' Halloween Camp next week can find me a cure, before time runs out..! And the infections spreads to everyone else on camp.. A fun outdoor camp full of imagination and outdoor play...

We now have the pleasure of launching the 'OWLS' Halloween Activity Camp

Tuesday 28th - Friday 31st October
Turvey Nature Reserve, Donabate, North Dublin.
Times 9.30 - 2.30pm daily.
For ages 6plus
Fee €30 per day

Theme; Infection
Join the team as a budding scientist and help find a cure or method of containment for 'Mouse 67' before time runs out. We need individuals that are brave, nerves of steel, to find the cure or shut down the wood before "mouse67' becomes fully infected and the outbreak spreads.

This will be a role playing camp with lots of chasing and being chased. There will also be an exclusion zone (for individuals to do art and crafts such as broom making, swords, wands) that the outbreak can't past into.
Fires each day, the spooky shop for trading body parts, marshmallow toasting, blood popcorn and the deadly eyeball and spider Halloween stew.

A fun camp full of imagination.

Open to booking now. Email only: [email protected] Send us a name, age and days you wish for your individual(s) to attend.
