Month: August 2022

That’s it folks, Agoonoree 2022 has come to a close. The last song has been sung and the last dance has been danced but the memories will keep us going until 2023, and remember, as our unofficial anthem says “always look on the bright side of life…”

Well done to the Woodpeckers for winning the horse racing and sports trophies, Kestrels for the camp gadget, the Swift Kingfishers for the pirate challenge, and our happiest camper and outstanding achievement by a volunteer.

The sun stayed out for us this afternoon so we’ve had great fun on the inflatables whilst the volunteers have started to strike camp. We’ve had our final afternoon swim and are now setting up for our last dinner of the week.

Our last day has dawned and the sun has come out. Before the hard work of striking camp starts we’ve got time for a bit more fun, a read of our daily paper, and a dose of sun cream.

Another great day comes to an end on camp. After our neeps and tatties we danced the night away.

If you missed our earlier broadcast from Bucks Scout Radio you can listen back below and here.

Winners will be revealed tomorrow but well done to all our competitors, there were some remarkable scores. Also, a big thank you to Bucks Scout Radio for coming to visit us.

We need to keep our energy up so we had traditional fish and chips wrapped in newspaper for lunch and are now broadcasting live on Bucks Scout Radio before the Highland Games start shortly.

The day has started with kilt making, before we have our very own Highland Games this afternoon. This evening we’ll be dancing the Scottish Ceilidh. Listen in to Bucks Scout Radio or download the app to hear more about it 1400-1600 this afternoon.

Today is Scottish day, in memory of Brian who sadly passed away during Covid. Brian was an avid supporter of Agoonoree and volunteered for over 20 years. Unfortunately, due the restrictions, many of us were unable to attend the funeral, so Brian, today is for you.
