Smile Coast Beach exploration, wildlife search, BBQ, and beach clean up. (2)

Pick up will be by car outside McDonlads at Tachikawa staion south side at 7:45 and drop off at 17:00. If  you are in central Tokyo I will pick you up at 6:30 at Koenji J.R. station, drop off at 18:15-30. Drop off time may be affected by Traffic so I will update the arrival time 1hr in advance.

From Tachikawa station we will head by car to Minami Boso Smile Coast.

Before arriving at the beach we will stop to shop for food for the BBQ.

Once we arrive we will explore the coast line (wading) and rock formations while searching for signs of wildlife and picking up any trash along the way.

As we find things we are interested in the Scouts will photograph it and we will research what we can about the creatures we come across.

After a while we will gather wood for the fire and cook and eat.

After lunch we will rest and do the research that we can before getting into some beach games.

Before heading back we will have a treasure hunt for shells, pebbles,and smooth sea glass to use for craft at a later date. Aside from the regular items, your Scout will need extra clothes, boots, or river shoes, and a camera if possible.

700 yen from your scouts allowance will go towards the car ride and will be logged in their notebooks. I hope to see you there!!
