Founders Day Raft Race

Every February around Founders Day (22nd Feb) we have the Annual District Raft Race. The scouts build rafts with drums and spars and race them against other scouts.

Scouts will then need to ensure that their rafts are ship shape and ready to take to the water. Rafts will be judged before racing commences. They will then take to the water and a number of races and other water activities will take place.

Sunscreen, a sun smart hat, sun smart shirt and closed-in footwear MUST be worn throughout the day, including during all water-based activities (Scouts without these on will not be permitted in the water).

There is usually a BBQ lunch.

Family members are welcome to attend and watch you have fun!!!

What to bring/wear:

• water bottle

• snacks (to eat throughout the day)

• sunscreen

• sun smart hat

• sun smart shirt

• towel

• bag for wet things.

We will need some assistance with transport on the day.
