8 Mar 2008 - Klondyke Derby 2008

 

The annual Klondyke Derby Competition took place in March, once again there was no snow so it was mud again. Teams from Upper Nidderdale, CCD, 16th, 20th, 10th and 1st Scarborough  met on a cold  Saturday with all their kit loaded onto various models of sledge.

 

The aim of the day was to pull the sledge around various bases to carry out the task and gain points. The bases this year were: shooting, distance archery, nugget hunt, pancake making, pioneering, stop the water, blind tent pitching, catch the rabbit, firelighting, bean bag buckets and the electric fence game.

 

Food and drink were on hand all day, there was also a quad bike stunt diplay given by Luke to liven the day up.

 

At the end of the day the CCD B team took the prize - well done to them. The Upper Nidderdale C team came third showing our older lads how it should be done.

  Air rifle shooting, one of the favourites of the day
 
  That one wont go a long way
 
  Mud, mud, glorious mud and some more mud
 
  No! do it like this says Clive
