The Cubs Beamish Christmas Trip is now live!

It’s time to roast those chestnuts around the campfire, sing Christmas Carols and have a whole lot of festive fun!
We will be meeting at Beamish Car Park at 10am on Saturday 10th December when we will have the whole day’s use of Beamish Museum, a traditional fish and chip tea (or vegetarian option) followed by an evening walk, campfire songs and s’mores (of course!). We will then tuck ourselves up in our sleeping bags and watch a festive Christmas movie! Please bring a packed lunch for Saturday.
We will then wake up and have breakfast in the tea rooms, followed by more fun at the museum.

We're always after feedback around how we organise our events, so feel free to send any comments you have to events@3rdwashingtonscouts.org.uk.
Our events bookings are non refundable unless we’re able to fill your booking with another member of the group. This is because many of our events require the group to commit money to an activity well before the event date. We'll always try to offer a refund where possible.
