Cub Scouts will enjoy a great deal of fun and adventure whilst in the Pack. They will also have opportunities to gain awards and badges. These awards are given in recognition of the effort made by each youngster at their own level of development and understanding. The Cub Scout Programme includes such activities as :
- Camping
- Caring for the environment
- Model making
- Cooking
- First Aid
- Exploring
- Helping others
The Training Programme.
The five stages of the progressive training in the Cub Scout Section are :-
- The Cub Scout Membership and Joining In Badges
- The Cub Challenges
- The Activity Badges
- Group Awards
There is also a special Chief Scout's Silver Award for Cub Scouts over 9½ years old. The progressive awards are supported by a large number of Activity Badges which the Cub Scouts can achieve. They cover a wide variety of subjects.
You may ask the question – "How do I find out about these activities/events?".
The mailing service tends to be via your youngster. We are very organised with a new program of activities and events issued 3 times a year. All the most up to date information can be found on this website and our Facebook pages. However, if at any time you are not sure about the arrangements for a Pack activity, do have a chat with the Leaders after a Pack meeting
The Cub Scout Pack meets regularly. The Pack is often taken out on visits in connection with the programme of activities. Sometimes the Cub Scout Leader invites visitors to speak to the Pack, like a local Police Officer or Fireman.
Our Cub Scout Pack has links with other Cub Scout Packs locally and throughout the County. They will occasionally join together for special Cub Scout events such as District Camps or County or Area Activities.
