Theme: Leaves from 1^st Norbreck

This is tied into the Blackpool DCs Challenge where colonies have to follow clues to find 'treasure'. The first lot was hidden in a wooded area and this played a part in the following programme as the Beaver Scouts has talked about and looked at trees and leaves while on there 'hunt'.
