Avon Scouts Cooking Competition 2020

Each year there is a South West Scout Region Cooking Competition. In advance of this and to see the great culinary skills of the Scouts across Avon teams take part in an Avon Scouts Cook Off.

Last Sunday, February 9th, the Avon Scouts Cooking Competition was held at 1st Keynsham Scouts HQ. 6 teams were battling for a place on the leaderboard. 78th Kingswood had 2 teams taking part, and they were having a blast.

This year the meal and table setting should reflect this year’s theme – “Olympics Past, Present and Future “. The theme needs to be reflected throughout the whole aspect of the entry; Dress, Table Decoration, Menu and Food Presentation.

The teams had 2 hours to prepare, cook and serve a 3 course meal, prepared using equipment which would be available in an average camp kitchen.

And the scores are in – Kingswood 78th 1 (Molly, Toby, Olly, Kirsty) came 3rd and Kingswood 78th 2 (Jacob, Sebastian, Anya, Libby) came 4th. A great achievement, considering the scores between 2nd place and 4th place were very close.

Thank you all for participating! Well done.
