Do you remember singing round the campfire, taking part in a Gang Show or vowing to "Do your best" - possibly using the time-honoured wording "Dyb, Dyb, Dyb"?

Our photos here show just some of the fun and educational events and exercises which Scouts have enjoyed over the years, from camping and cookery competitions to joining in a cycle marathon and tying knots.
