As we now have a number of Explorers that are/are going to be 18 or older - and we have some problems fitting more Explorers into the available space we may have to set up a Network unit.

Network are for 18 - 25 years old - and have some significant differences from Explorers and Scouts when it comes to the whole permission system. As 18 year olds are defined as adults by the Scout Association they can basically govern themselves and go whenever/wherever they want to go without going through the whole Scout permits system...

There was only one moment of panic at the beginning of the camp where we found out we were missing poles for the Mess Tent, but we used our brains and well..did without the poles, which seemed to work.
