County


 In 2004 the County organised a huge camping event called Tookay. Hundreds of Scouts and Guides from around North Yorkshire and the north of England were involved. The youngsters took part in a great variety of activities ranging from crafts, quad biking, dry stone walling, pioneering, wind surfing, sailing, grass sledging, walking, rock climbing, sub-aqua, kayaking, orienteering, bungee running, IT, radio boats, discos and campfire lighting to Karaoke and volleyball; and this list is incomplete! Leaders from the Ingleborough District ran a very successful subcamp called Loki, which was one of several visited by the then Chief Scout, George Purdy.

County Scouters provide training and support for Leaders, as well as a programme of events and activities for all Sections. This enables both youngsters and adults to benefit from a much wider range of experiences involving other Districts, Counties and occasionally, other nationalities.
