ADVENTUROUS youngsters enjoyed a day of exploration and activities when a Ranger Roadshow came to town.
Hamsterley Forest, near Bishop Auckland, County Durham, was the setting for woodland escapades designed by the Forestry Commission to help youngsters beat the summer holiday blues yester- day.
It marked the end of a week- long roadshow which had travelled through Rothbury Wooler, Kielder Forest and Chopwell Wood.
Yesterday's visitors enjoyed nature safaris and a series of team building exercises which included creating forest masterpieces with rustic materials and grappling with ropes and planks.
Richard Gilchrist, from the Forestry Commission, said: "Our rangers from across the region have joined the roadshow bandwagon to offer a really great day out.'
