Hot Air Balloons 24th September 2023 (updated 24th September 2023) | By Sean Edwards Last week at Explorers, we attempted to make hot Air Balloons out of an assortment of items. After much planning and construction, we headed outside for some test flights! On this occasion, none of the designs were capable of flight and a few even ended up on fire! At the end of the meeting we also invested 8 new members to the unit!
Sailing – Supeta 24th September 2023 (updated 24th September 2023) | By Sean Edwards 7 of our Explorer ventured out on Supeta today. Unfortunately the weather was too windy to head out to sea however the Explorer still tool the boat out for half a day learning to steer, dock and drive backwards under engine power. Hopefully next time we will have some better luck! A few photos are below.
Angel Throwing & Pioneering 13th September 2023 (updated 13th September 2023) | By Sean Edwards On Monday we had a busy evening. 8 of our Explorers prepared for the upcoming Downsman Hike by marking out their route and discussing their menu. We also had angel throwing run by Allen and Katie and whilst waiting, the other groups had to build the highest pioneering structure. 3 groups managed to build a structure above head height however the neatness, design and knot skills leave a lot to be desired!!! A few photos are below.
