East Kilbride Scouts Camp At Glentrool

A Memory of Glentrool Village.


Summer Camp for many East Kilbride Scouts in 1977 was a choice between an expensive long distance coach trip to Switzerland or a cheaper and fun District Camp at Glentrool just an hour and a half ride away on a service bus!

I took a patrol of my boys from the 3rd East Kilbride Troop (55th Clydesdale) to join the District Camp and we were blessed with beautiful weather every day to enjoy our forest campsite. Most days we swam in the waters below the Falls of Minnoch. It was terrifying jumping into the icy cold water on a hot day!
