Lookwide Marra is based on the Caud Marra (Cold and Utterly Daft Friends) camp which is a winter activities camp held in February that is all about fun, adventure and meeting new friends. This year, Lookwide Marra is a return to the roots of the camp which started it's life being run in Gosforth Park with around 500 campers each year. To celebrate 100 years of Scouting in Northumberland, Lookwide is the theme for this camp as it was the first official Scout Camp to be held in Northumberland by Baden Powell. This year's camp will be held on the 23rd - 26th May at Gosforth Park, Newcastle Upon Tyne.
The camp is all self-catered in your own groups and you will be allocated a site dependent upon the numbers you register. Time will be built into the programme to allow you to prepare and eat meals; however we will still be running a very active programme.
The camp is over and we hope everyone had a brilliant time. Photos are up on the Marra 2008 page. If anybody has any we can use please send them to info@lookwidemarra.org.uk
