Rodney's Pillar in time for Supper!



Please join us for the last Night Hike of the summer this Friday 13th July. We will be trekking up to the top of the Breiddens highest hill to watch the sun set with our backs to the prominent memorial to Admiral Rodney, who in 1782 defeated a French and Spanish fleet at the Battle of the Saintes to protect Jamaica from invasion. This is our second Jamboree on the Trail hike and I have a handsomely designed badge for each Scout and Leader who joins the trek.
