Cold weather doesn't stop us!

Suzanne Young from Western Bays Sea Scouts

As well as indoor challenges such as our recent confidence course which kept feet off the floor and in the rafters, we still head into the great outdoors. Our main sailing series is even held over the cooler months, and as they say - there is no bad weather, only bad clothing!
