BODIAM SCOUTS & CUBS
If I remember correctly, this photo was taken at Burwash Weald at a District day camp. I can remember that there were a
lot of other cub packs there. We each our own area in the field where we pitched a base tent. We had a camp fire on
which we attempted to cook sausages and beans. There were various competitions on which we were marked and it
finished with tracking through the woods. I don't think we won anything but I stand to be corrected.

This photo was taken at the same camp. It looks as if we are trying to light a fire.

Clifford Ennis and John Barnett - Cubs

This photo has been supplied by Anthony Breeds who took the photo.
He has had a go at putting names to faces and I have assisted.
We can spot David Clout, Peter Barnett, Peter Kingshott (I think
but cannot be sure), Chris Trussler and Christopher Breeds.
I am almost certain the Scoutnaster in the centre is Doug Hopkins.
Can anyone help with other names?

This photo has also been supplied by Anthony Breeds
He gives the following commentary "The second photo shows the transport we used (for
scouts and tents etc.) for a scout camp in the Summer of 1962 (I think) on a
farm at Pett. We had a different Scout Master (a Scot who insisted on lots of
salt in the porridge) and Mervyn Pelling the Troop Leader at the time, took a
shot gun with him to shoot rabbits for the pot."

Another photo from Anthony Breeds.
He has provided the following commentary on the photo.
This one is of the 1st Bodiam Cub group from
1957.
The occasion was a pageant at Mountfield Court and
our display was depicting David Livingstone.
I know most of the names. The only person I
can't recognise is myself! I remember being blacked up and having to wear
a grass skirt so I must be the skinny one in the back row.
The two adults were Mr Dale and Mrs Barber (Akela
of the cubs during the 50s & 60s).
The cubs were :- Back Row (from
