The Duchess of Cambridge visited an adult scout training program at the Great Tower Scout Activity Center on the shores of Lake Windermere in Cumbria on a wintery Friday.
The Duchess arrived at the camp and was one of 25 adult volunteers that attended a training program. The group then moved outside for further training in creating different types of camp fires. After a lunch break, Kate Middleton and the adults were joined by a group of youth Cub Scouts from Manchester and Cumbria. Putting their new knowledge to use the group taught the children how to make fires of their own as well as cook unleavened dough on sticks. Kate was overheard remarking that the bread may not be the best of snacks, "it's actually not bad, if you were really desperately hungry."
According to their website, the Scouts help 400,000 youths in the UK build social and education skills and life long friendships. The volunteers make this possible for the children and find the task rewarding.
