Our 2015 Summer Camp will be taking place at the Great Tower Scout Activity Centre near Lake Windermere in the heart of the Lake District. Great Tower is one of the major centres for outdoor Scouting activities in the UK and offers a large range of outdoor pursuits, on and off the water.
The Camp will take place from 25th July to 1st August 2015 and the cost will be £275 per person, which includes:
- All transport costs
- Indoor accommodation
- All meals
- Full daily programme of activities
Transport to the site is by coach and we will be staying in the Kirkstone Chalet, which offers indoor, centrally heated accommodation with its own kitchen, dining and bathroom facilities. All bedrooms are for four people maximum.
We have run a Summer Camp almost every year since 2008 and it is always an enjoyable and fulfilling
experience for all participants. If you are looking to get something a bit different out of Scouting, please
consider signing up.
We have spaces for 22 young people and we would like to see these taken up mainly by Scouts, rather
than having to fill up spaces from other sections. We appreciate that many of you have not been
camping before and may be apprehensive about being away from home, but rest assured that you will
be well looked-after, sleeping indoors and with a great programme of activities laid on. The views are
pretty spectacular too.

If you would like to sign up, please bring a deposit of £50 along between now and the end of November. Because of the need to get definite numbers, we cannot refund deposits, unless we can find someone else to fill your space. As with all our major camps, you are welcome to pay the balance in instalments. We look forward to seeing as many as possible of you on camp.
