Session summary
This is a great session to start with, as it allows new Squirrels to start getting to know each other and find out about Scouts and the adventure they’re joining. By the end of the session, each Squirrel will have their own model campfire that they can take home and use to remind them of their Squirrels experience.
Safety message
Use the safety checklist to help you plan and risk assess your activity. There's also more guidance to help you carry out your risk assessment, including examples. Don’t forget to make sure all young people and adults involved in the activity know how to take part safely.
