Beavers Fun on the Water

Posted on July 4th, 2017 by Mike_Provis

The 1st Clevedon Beavers got the chance to have lots of water when having some Kayaking and Canoeing training on the amazing Clevedon Marine Lake, courtesy of the Clevedon Canoe Club and Marlens. We’re so lucky to have a facility like this on our doorstep!

The Beavers absolutely loved it with most of them staying dry, but a few going for a dip and most important of all coming back up with a smile on their face and getting straight back on the horse, or rather the Kayak. They did amazingly well considering they are all between 6 and 8 years old.

The sessions was brilliantly run by 3 of the canoe club’s instructors and a big thank you goes to Steve and Ali for helping to organise it all.

This was the first time we’ve ever done anything like this with the Beavers, but it’s safe to say that we will be doing it again next year as it was a huge success! 🙂

1st Clevedon Beavers 400 mile challenge

Posted on January 21st, 2017 by Mike_Provis

1st Clevedon Beavers as a group are taking on the challenge this term of walking the equivalent distance of Clevedon Pier to the Eiffel Tower in Paris – a cool 400 miles.

They will be doing this over 3 walks with each Beaver clocking up approximately 8 miles, for which they will be raising sponsorship for a fantastic local charity called the Springboard Opportunity Group. It’s all part of the Beavers working towards their World Challenge and Community Impact Activity badges.

Formed in 1986, Springboard is the only organisation of its kind in the North Somerset area and has worked with thousands of children and their families and now provides a vital service for over 100 children and their families every week. They work with a wide range of children with additional needs including those with autistic spectrum disorders, physical disabilities, sensory impairment, emotional and behavioural difficulties, communication difficulties and other learning disabilities.

Their mission is to give the best possible start in life to children under 5 by providing specialist early learning and interventions and offering support and friendship to their families.
