Peak 2010

Peak 2010 was an International Scouting and Guiding gathering with over 7,000 children, leaders and staff camping in the spectacular Chatsworth Park. Peak is held every 5 years making 2010 eagerly anticipated.  It was a fun packed week for all involved with the agendas overflowing with activities.

For us at Skowt it was an opportunity to showcase the time saving solutions we have developed to help with everyday Scouting and Guiding problems.

We hosted the Stick Together Competition which had each group using their creativity to build the most inventive art work using 35 lollipop sticks. We were overwhelmed by the quality of the response with each entry showing ingenuity, resourcefulness and originality. Once all entries were received we hosted them online for all to vote on.

Here are some of our favourites:

The winner will be the one with the most votes on Sunday at midnight. The voting has been crazy! Keeping us on the edge of our desk chairs as we watch the votes roll into the 1000s.

We are currently looking forward to the reunion at Gilwell – brainstorming ideas for how to use the mountain of lollipop sticks left over that are piled high in the office!

Happy Skowting!
