Cancelled – District Cheshire Hike Practice 4

7th March 2020 @ 8:30 am - 8th March 2020 @ 3:00 pm

Training event postponed. Due to poor weather conditions underfoot and postponement of Cheshire Hike until October, this practice has been cancelled.
This is the final, ‘two day hikes’ open to all Scouts & Explorers in the District participating in the Cheshire Hike. It’s a great opportunity to practice for Cheshire Hike and Participation can contribute to a number of badges. Please note there is a flat £25 to attend practice 2, 3 & 4 whether you attend all of them or just one of them. If you book onto all three at the same time a £50 discount will be applied to the basket. If you book on to just one weekend and then subsequently decide to come to another weekend hike the website will recognise this and not charge you for the other two weekends.
