STORM blog post
Hi, I’m Jack Liddon, a county patrol leader for Kent.
On the 23rd January 2010 I attended the Kent county STORM event in Whitstable. I went as a media rep with the county patrol, and it was my job to take photographs and report on the day’s events.
Storm is a laser gun event that was open to all Kent Scouts.
It was an excellent event, one enjoyed by many.
The laser zone was very dark and Smokey. Everywhere you looked you could see lasers. There were 6 teams in total, 3 green and 3 orange. The idea of the game was to hit the opposing team with your laser gun. At first people just continually shot with their laser gun, but soon realised that the gun could run out and would need to be energized at the big black boxes in the laser room; wasting precious battle minutes.
The walls of the laser zone were covered in glow paint. I only realised this after I had leaned against a wall...my clothes now have a special glow in the dark feature to them!
The day was a huge success. Everyone involved had plenty of battles in the laser zone. I would certainly recommend this event for any scouts who would be interested next time.
