A Round Up of the Week

Its been another intensley busy week at Blaithwaite, the weather has been cold and quite wet for the time of year (just 7 degC on Thursday afternoon in persistent rain).

Last weekend saw the Centre full and the campsite busy as a large Church from the North East came back for their annual visit, thankfully the Saturday was fine and they were able to enjoy a decent day, it even stayed dry for their barbecue lunch on Sunday.

Monday was arrival day for a local clergy 24 hour retreat & I was able to get off site for a couple of hours to spend a bit of time scrambling about & practising ropework on Carrock Fell boulders, I like the general area of Mungrisdale Common & it looked particularly good in the afternoon sunshine.



On Tuesday a primary school from Northumberland made their 2012 visit - a four day outdoor activity residential and we have changed the site over today for another full weekend with a Church from Newcastle & a local group of Guides, its good to see the Teepees out on the field.

Kay has enjoyed a "steady " week this week which is a good thing!

Off to a family wedding just now - so 24 hours away from the Centre - thanks to Alan for covering for me.
