Viking Family Fun Day, 115th Birthday Celebration and AGM
7 July 2023 - 9 July 2023
£10.00 – £50.00
Join us for our Annual Family Camp. We have tried to be more flexible this year, so you can either choose the all-in tickets, or else pick and choose various options to suit.
Friday evening is a chance to help get setup, relax with a BBQ, a few drinks and a relaxed evening around the BBQ.
If you dont fancy camping, then pop along at 8:30am on Saturday and join us for a day on the river. Saturday will take the form of a number of activities. we’ll split into groups before each session and then head off to either kayak, canoe, powerboat ride, Stand Up paddle and just chill on the lawn or watch the boats on the river. No experience is necessary, just let us know if you are not a strong swimmer.
We will have our AGM on the lawn at about midday on Saturday, so if you are coming for the day, please stay around for that.
Pickup a Hogroast ticket and join us for our 115th Birthday celebrations on Saturday evening with “Ken-aoke” and potentially a kazoo or two 🙂 The campfire us usually the place to be after this.
Sunday starts with a good breakfast, followed by a couple of smaller sessions while we start to get things ready for the Viking Horde around lunchtime. We take all our boats and paddle / row/ idle from Paxmead, through Shepperton Lock and on to our HQ where we put the boats away then do a shuttle back to Paxmead to clean up and fetch cars. many hands make light work and we aim to be finished and packed away by about 4:30pm on the Sunday
If you are staying over, you will need to have a DBS Check by the Scout Association. If you dont have one, then please let me know ASAP at giles@waltonviking.uk
