Squirrel Scouts are 1!
Our newest section turns 1 this month, thanks to the hard efforts of our leaders, executive committee, lovely Squirrel parents and especially our amazing Squirrel Scouts for making this first year a brilliant one!
Squirrels are coming to Sea Scouts!
In September, we will be opening our Squirrel Scout section for 4 and 5 year olds. This is incredibly exciting and we are hoping to get a lot of new young members into our group. Planning has been under way for a couple of months, and we are now at the recruiting stage. If you know any 4 or 5 year olds who would love to join Scouting, please get in touch! Likewise, if you, or anyone you know, would be interested in volunteering with this age group, we'd love to hear!
Squirrels will meet on a Tuesday evening, from 5.30pm until 6.30pm, and will be wearing the official Squirrel Scout uniform jumper that is an orange-red colour. There are 12 activity badges and 4 challenge badges Squirrels can earn, with the section's top award being the Chief Scout Acorn Award.
We are really looking forward to opening this new section within our group.
Hut redecoration
Thanks to the hard work of leaders, parents, and our young people, we have a freshly redecorated hut! It looks amazing. We have repainted the main hall and both changing rooms, it is looking much brighter.
