The Scouts were the guests of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers and spent the day learning various mechanic skills, including changing a tyre on a Land Rover, welding, how an internal combustion engine works and working on Lynx helicopter! At the end of the day the Scouts were presented the Mechanics Badge by a Colonel of the regiment.

They also met Tim Kidd, the UK Chief Commissioner of Scouts, who spoke with the young people about what they get up to at Woodcutts and their favourite activities.
