An environmental adventure begins...
Claire Coombe
This morning campers awoke to a blue sky day and the most beautiful of sunrises after their first night under canvas. A team of harvesters headed to the garden while a cooking crew got to work in the field kitchen whipping up fresh fluffy pancakes and delicious sandwich fillings for lunch.
We're fortunate to have the convergence of three rivers right on our doorstep so for some it was a short stroll to the launch point where we jumped on kayaks and got to grips with paddling in tandem. Others tackled the climbing wall and developed their climbing, coaching and belaying skills. After a chance to catch up with new friends over lunch the kayakers headed to the climbing wall while the climbers learned how to shoot a bow and arrow on the archery range.
This evening the group headed out on a dusk walk and had a chance meeting with the Woodsman of Moresk who was only to happy to share some of the secrets of the woodland with them. Tomorrow we can look forward to forging toasting forks, carving stone and designing and silk screen printing t-shirts.
