Operation Twilight 2012


Operation twilight was held on Saturday 6th October 2012 this year, over 400 Scouts, Explorers, Network and Leaders will again take part in the biggest Scouting manhunt around! Twilight is The Event ran from 8am to 9pm at a different location each year, this years locations was stamfordham.

What is operation twilight?

Basically it is a giant game if hide and seek and takes place in the Northumberland area. The winning Team is the Team that arrives at the finish within the time window, with the least lives lost.  Teams are caught by twilight marshals and once you are caught your team lose a life. Teams are a minimum of 4 members (maximum of 6) and consist of explorer scout unit teams.
what happened this year?

This year operation twilight was held at Stamfordham Village Hall, and lasted 12 hours. The actual hunt lasted 9 hours and there was good weather with no rain (that s quite an achievement for this year) This year Whitley bay explorer scouts did not win, and mid Northumberland explorer scouts were victorious.
