What the... Extreme Ironing | Extreme Ironing |
| Written by The Clitheroe Advertiser and Times | |
 Members of the Clitheroe Explorer Scouts decided to take their badge work to a new level.With some careful paddling work and a great sense of balance, the Explorer Scouts were able to paddle 200m along the River Ribble from Edisford Bridge while ironing. Extreme ironing combines the danger of an extreme sport with the satisfaction of a well-pressed shirt. Explorer Scout Nathan Littley said: "The hardest part was getting a straight crease on the sleeves and – oh yes - not falling in." The Scout Association is celebrating its centenary this year with the Explorer Scout section catering for 14-18-year-olds. |
