Back from a fun LOT Weekend

We had a fantastic weekend at Edale YHA with our second Level 1 Group.

The weather was very changeable - sunny in the morning, cloudy at lunchtime, then pouring with rain in the afternoon! This didn't stop us having a great time raft building, doing some crate-tower building and indoor games.


There were 8 participants from all over the UK who came to Edale for a weekend learning about teamwork and leadership - and having fun!

Photos from the weekend can be seen by clicking the image below:

LOT Weekend 28-30 March 2008

We will be inviting people from each Level 1 Weekend to attend our Level 2 in July. Please respond as quickly as you can if you hear from us so we can give places to those who want to come.

Feel free to comment if you went on the Weekend.
