The Great Outdoors: A Weekend of Sunshine, Fishing, Camping, Great Food and Comradeship.
Continuing our Strength Through Joy program, BM East Midlands and BM Northwest traded the daily grind and screen time for fresh air, open water, and the quiet beauty of nature. From the moment we set up camp, the tone was set: good company, zero rush, and an unforgettable weekend ahead.
Highlights of the Trip
Setting Up Camp: Pitching tents, organising gear, and creating our home base under the open sky.
On the Water: Reeling in catches (and sharing plenty of “the one that got away” stories), patiently waiting by the water, and enjoying the stillness of nature.
Around the Fire: Evening campfires filled with great conversations, shared laughs, cooked meals, and unwinding under the stars.
Unplugged Connection: Simply enjoying each other’s company without the usual distractions of everyday life.
Nothing beats the combination of a cast line, a warm fire, and great comrades. It was the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation – a weekend for the books, and definitely one to repeat soon.
