Team fundraising for 20th Dundee Scout Group Help Heather McKenzie raise money to support 20th Dundee Scout Group

Scouts who where picked to help on our fundraising stall taking a break from their hard work at the Caird Hall today.

The scouts finished off the term with a visit to see Circus Extreme. A fantastic show, loved by the leaders and kids. And we’ve probably kept them in business for the next 3-4 years with the amount of popcorn, candy floss, slush and light up wands purchased!

Would just like to take this chance to say a big thank you to all kids and parents for all your support this year. Also a massive thank you to Helen, Rachel and Arin for their time and commitment and making it all possible. Looking forward to lots of new adventures next year!⚜️

A busy last night at Cubs on Monday night at Templeton Woods. Litter picking 🚮, campfire songs 🔥🎶, smores 🍡and Six of the Term🏆. Hope you all have a fabulous Summer! Raksha 🐺, Bagheera🐈‍⬛, Hathi🐘, Baloo🐻, Mang 🦇and Jacala 🐊

A very well done to our Cubs this weekend who participated in the District Cub Flag.
The B Team managed to come in a brilliant second place.
Cubs took part in a range of challenges including chariot building, tent pitching, orienteering, fencing, Japanese writing, Chinese window flowers, Hell Hole Trial, Boules, Australian Celebrities and The Captain Scott Challenge. They were marked on teamwork, behaviour and success.
We also had a campfire and a silent disco, and today we had some It’s A Knockout games.

Well done to the Cubs who showed excellent skills and behaviour across the weekend, and coped with the activities and weather very well.

You should all be proud of yourselves.

Taking advantage of the good weather with a hike up The Law. Drawing landscapes of Dundee and the surroundings for our Artist badge

"You get a badge, and you get a badge!" Quite a few badges handed out last night, with more to hand out for some that couldn't make meeting last night. Happy sewing everyone 🧵🪡⚜

Cubs had a visit to the Broughty Ferry Lifeboat - RNLI station tonight. Thanks to Michael for the tour. It was very informative.

Huge thanks to Flash (also known as Nikki) and Roco (the therapy pet) who came along to squirrels tonight!

We throughly enjoyed brushing, petting and walking Roco this evening!

Thanks again Flash and Roco

A huge well done to the scouts who represented the group at this years District Flag camping competition. They all did a fantastic job and gained a very respectable 3rd place🥉

A weekend filled with axe throwing, tomahawk throwing and lots of other fun activities in the sweltering heat. Along with the added bonus of the northern lights on Friday evening.

Youve all done the group proud⚜️

Today we joined the 5th Downfield Cub Pack as we took part in Trailjam 2024. Groups around the world were all on walks and hikes around the world on the same day.
We started in Clatto and finished in Camperdown taking in Templeton Woods along the way.
A stop at the Duck Pond to feed the ducks in Camperdown Park was followed by snacks and for some a play in the park.
Thanks to the 5th for their company and also to all the Cubs and leaders for coming along and the excellent behaviour.

We were delighted to invest 8 Cubs tonight who all made their promises. Welcome to the Pack 🐾⚜

Our squirrel section is currently thriving and offering our young people lots of new experiences but in order to offer this we need adult volunteers

If you are interested please email [email protected] or message the team here

If this isn’t for you, we would love a share of this post to help our recruitment

We are always on the look out for new adult leaders, at the moment our youngest group (squirrels) are recruiting

Please share

Some of the Cubs visited Camperdown Zoo today. We were very lucky to have one of the Zookeepers Kate, let us see the Bears a little more close up.

Today members from Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs and Scouts attended Thinking Day service at Coldside Church. The young people were all very well behaved and were a credit to the group.

Some photos from past couple of weeks. Science night last week and this week, half the pack working together to make shortbread while the other half listened to Baloo's Astronomy talk - all switch next week!

Cubs had a hike around Clatto Reservoir/Templeton Woods tonight. All did brilliantly and the route taken was 1.86 miles long which took 54.41 minutes, roughly 4000 steps 🥾 No pics as too dark 🔦🤣⚜
