photos: Burnham-On-Sea Beavers earn their safety badges
Burnham-On-Sea's Beavers have had a busy few weeks visiting the
town's police, Coastguards and rescue hovercraft crews while working
towards their safety badges.
The
youngsters visited Burnham police station to learn about 'stranger
dangers' and dropped in at the town's Coastguard and hovercraft
stations to hear about beach safety.
 Leader
Mandy Williams told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "The Beavers have
been busily working towards their Safety Badges."
"Whilst
we were at BARB and the Coastguard we were taught about how to
stay safe whilst using the beach and the sea."
"As
a thank you, we have teamed together with the Kingfisher Cubs
and are now raising money for BARB."
"We were also invited to the police station where the Beavers
were informed of the importance of staying bright and being seen
in the dark. The
Beavers were also allowed to see in a police van and had a chance
to dress up in police uniforms. They also saw the prison cells
and had their fingerprints taken, which was great fun."
