Fitbones camp will use the village hall in Schull or Ballydehob as back up. One of the days we will probably run out of Ballydehob community grounds. We can do the Mt Gabriel hike and tunnels (bring torches!); orienteering; an adventure challenge day; different sports; and new from last year - the slacklines (big hit during the summer camps). Mud in February is guaranteed! Kids should wear old, non-precious clothes(!!) raingear, wellies on some of the days, hats, gloves, rucksack for carrying lunch as we walk. Children from age 5! It depends on the five year olds as to whether such a week works for them (at that age they can join in on odd days if it suits).
