On Friday 2nd April 2010 the two Companies of 1st Kidderminster and 1st Lye had a camp at the Far Forest Centre. This was a change of venue due to Coopers Mill being closed.
There was 21 boys and 5 staff attending. The advance party took the food and other items needed for the camp up ready for the arrival of the lads in the afternoon.
The camp which lasted for 5 days until the Tuesday had a bit of rain but stayed mainly dry.
On Saturday we walked to the Wyre Forest Visitor Centre so the lads could spend their or (parents )cash.
Sunday we went to Vernon Hall Free Church in Stourport for the Easter service. We wore Uniform for a change and there were a number of comments on how smart the Boys looked.
We played football and played tracker and capture the flag games in the nearby Orchard.
On Monday we walked to Bewdley which was a 8 mile round trip. We went to the Chippy
and to Teddy Grays sweet shop. Some of the lads went back to Far Forest on the mini-
Tuesday soon came around and it was time pack up and go home. We enjoyed having the comfort of a centre with all the facilities and it was different to what we were normally used to for a Easter Camp.
