ACT Cuboree - Day Two, 15th January 2011

Today was the 1st day of activities. The activity bases were for 2 ¾ hours each and our first base was the Media Office. It was a good chance for the Cubs to show off their acting and singing skills. While our host pack was in the Signallers Depot (sub camp), we were placed into The Red group for the activity rotations. Lunch broke up the activity bases (we were able to have morning and afternoon tea at the bases).  In the afternoon, we were at the Foreign office, learning how to play with Drums and do the dance of the indigenous New Zealanders. It was quite cool really!

It was also the day we received ‘mail’, having written postcards to our mysterious pen plans the night before. It was quite exiting to get mail everyone got one (I shared Akela’s as it was easier). It was certainly a new experience for Wilbur and many cubs, as they have never received post you can actually handle and read. Must have been like this in the old days, before email and sms each other!

Akela and I had a late night tonight as we sat around talking with the other South Australian Leaders and one of the Canberra leaders late into the night.
