On the 9th May 2009 the 17th Medway invested its first 7 explorers into our explorer unit. At Rosswood the unit decided to get invested with a twist. So half after adsailing half way down the wall they each made there promise and joined the unit. Fun was had by all apart from Steven who soend an hour hanging half way down the wall slowly losing the feeling in his legs. More pictures can be found in the photo section of the site.
