Monday
Night Meetings
Our normal Pack night is a Monday and we
have a mixture of games, scout training, badge work, craft and sport.
We also have some theme evenings and during the summer we often have
trips out or do outdoor activities.
There is a range of badges for the cubs to try for and we give as
much assistance / training / opportunities as possible for them to
achieve as many as they can.
Outdoor
Activities
The cubs try to have at least two weekends
away each year. In addition we have a number of single day activities.
We try to have at least one camp under canvass and one indoors the
one under canvass is at the District camp and activities such as Swimming,
Air Rifles, Archery, Rock Climbing, Slippery Slope, Volley Ball and
loads of others are arranged.
As we have a Sea Scout troop in the group we do as much boating as
we can with them. The group own canoes, Mirror and Enterprise sailing
dinghies, a rowing boat and a sport boat with an outboard engine.
When we go to camp we train the cubs in basic camping skills (fire
lighting / tent pitching / Tracking, campfire songs etc.) and also
map reading, pioneering etc. On top of this being a younger age we
play more games and do lots of crafts.
We enter all the District competitions such
as Uni-Hoc, Swimming, Five a side Football, along with
all the other sections. We also have an annual Christmas
Party.
