Avonation

365 days ago the world was in a very different place and we were thousands of miles away on our adventure of a lifetime! We'd made it across the Atlantic and had our overnight stop in New York before spending some time in the city #unit70 #avonation #ukcontingent #avonscouts

Impromptu Zoom catch up arranged by Lexi to cure lockdown Boredom! #unit70wsj24 #Avonation #Unit70 #AvonScouts

The #Avonation Leaders can't wait for our unit #Reunion weekend away - It's going to be fantastic to see each-other for a couple of days of fun, activities, awards, partying and generally catching up. Unit members don't know what to expect, so everything's a surprise :D

Treating the whole unit to a great meal at @Hardrockcafe before we head back to the campsite ahead of our 3am start tomorrow for 27 hours of travelling home #unit70wsj24 #unit70 #Ukcontingent #avonscouts #Canada #Niagara #HardRockCafe
