Cub Scouts

‘The best part of Scouting is definitely the camps. I love every activity we do apart from swimming. They told us the pool was 24 degrees centigrade. -24 more like!’

Brief History of Cub Scouts

Scouting is one of the great success stories of the last 100 years. From an experimental camp for 20 boys on Brownsea Island in 1907, it has spread to 216 countries and territories, with an estimated 28 million members.

Cubs is the second section of the Scouting movement, originally started in 1916 for younger brothers who wanted a 'look-in'. In nearly a century, the section has constantly evolved and adapted its programme and methods to meet the changing needs of each generation of young people, and these days admits girls as well as boys.

Our Cub Scout Pack

The Viking Cub Pack was the first Pack to be founded in the Group. We meet on Monday nights from 7.00pm to 8.30pm.

The dream team of Andrew, Chris, Paddy and Sinead try to keep control of a wild bunch of 20 highly strung 9-11 year old boys & girls, in the Cobra, Bull, Shark & Leopard sixes!

Activities range from the extremes of hiking, camping and outdoor crack the code treasure hunts to the other extreme of Ship Sea Shore.

The gang are busy trying to earn Lands of Adventure Stickers, Special Interest Badges and Adventure Skills badges.
