Smite

 

 

Smite, though based on a traditional Northern European game, is new to the U.K. Combining the skill and dexterity of boule with the cunning and guile of croquet, Smite can either be played as a competitive sport, or enjoyed as a family game.

News from Bodmin District

Sainburys Community Week

During the first week in October, 3rd Bodmin Scout Group took advantage of the kind offer by Sainbury's accross the UK, and with the use of the county Display trailer and their own bouncy castle, made great use of the venue. On the Saturday, the store assisted with the provision of the mobile climbing walll from the Delaware centre, and overall the week proved a great success, not only from the point of view of recruiting and fundraising, but also as a means of promoting scouting as a whole.
