What do Cub Scouts do? Each Cub Pack's activity programme is different, and most vary significantly from year to year. Core activities normally include camping, games, outdoor activities and Cub Badgework. Where and When: There are Cub Packs at †all Groups in the District, please see Group pages for details. Uniform: Cub Scout uniform consists of: Group Scarf, Cub Sweatshirt (and / or Polo Shirt), Dark Trousers (Not jeans), Black Socks, Black Shoes. Badges are normally supplied by the Group and issued during the enrolment ceremony, which should take place between four and six weeks after your son or daughter joins the Pack. Uniform is normally required for all meetings, and is available from the Scout Shop at the Weir View HQ on Saturday Mornings between 09:30 and 12:00. Adults: There are a number of adults involved in the running of the Cub Packs. Each new adult helper is subject to a Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) check before commencing work with the Group. All existing leaders complete a performance review (which includes a repeat of the CRB check) every five years. Costs: Subscription charges vary from Group to Group, but are typically of the order of £25 per term. |
