Carlton Rotary Club sponsors Outward
Bound Course for Local Youngsters.
A group of 24 students aged between 14 & 15, sponsored by the Rotary
of Carlton, attended an Outward Bound Course at the Ullswater Outward
Bound Centre in the Lake District from April 14th to 18th
The students were selected from the 3 local secondary schools of
Carlton Le Willows, The Gedling School & Frank Wheldon School.
The students found the course tough but rewarding, experiencing fell
walking, canoeing, raft building, abseiling and rock climbing. They also
undertook an overnight expedition where they camped, cooked outdoors and
learned field crafts.
The club is very proud to have now sponsored over 100 local
youngsters on such courses during the last six years, and look forward
to continuing during 2009.
