Duchess Kate's fourth weekly engagement: Scout Camp training day

The Duchess of Cambridge will attend her fourth royal engagement of the week on Friday, it was announced today (Thursday). Clarence House confirmed on its website, Kate Middleton will attend a volunteer training day at the Great Tower Scout Camp in Newby Bridge, Cumbria.

The pregnant duchess is a volunteer for the Scout Association and has been active with a local group near her and Prince William's home in Anglesey, Wales. The March 22nd visit, however, will be an official royal engagement in which she'll work with adult leaders to help lead youngsters in tree climbing, fire lighting, and cooking.

The last time Kate made a visit to an outdoor kids camp she strapped on her $500 green Wellies. Given the outdoor event, it's likely the nearly-six months pregnant duchess will go for a more casual, outdoorsy look -- in what's expected to be the first time she's dressed her baby bump down for an official outing.
