The Cuboree is a five day long camp and this year's theme was 'Space.'

The Cuboree was postponed last September but was full steam ahead for the April school holidays.

From Horsham groups and other Wimmera groups there were 28 Cubs, two Scouts, two Venturers (Sarah Bennett was one) and 10 leaders.

There was 3300 Cubs, 220 Scouts and Ventures, 62 Rovers, and 1118 Leaders/adult helpers spread across four subcamps.

"It was cold, wet and muddy and we slept in tents," one young Cub said.

"One of the activities was "A Space Odyssey" and the leaders and cubs got to throw balls at each other. Another activity was where we had to go through a maze and find parts of a big picture and put them together.

"The most fun activity of all, was the mud activity. The first part was where everyone had a slingshot and muddy sponge and then launched the sponge filled with mud at other people.

"The second part was an obstacle course that was filled with mud. People got covered from head to toe in mud."
