There are loads of fun things that you can do as a Scout. You will get a chance to try lots of different activities like swimming, cooking, camping, computing and hiking. If you do them properly you will get a badge which you can wear on your uniform.
Scouts also get to go on trips to places like museums, theme parks or activity centres. Sometimes you will be able to go camping with the rest of your troupe. This will mean you sleeping in a tents or hammocks and doing loads of outdoor activities.

Making Payments
We would be grateful if any payments, whether they be by cash or cheque, are placed in a sealed envelope with details of what the payment is for, and who it is from, on the front of the envelope.
Subs
Subs are collected each term, and are currently at £22 per term. This money covers:-
- Annual fees to District, County and National bodies for insurance and leader training. Unfortunately, the group don’t get to see a penny of this money.
- A small amount of the subs are kept by the group to cover running costs such as electric and water bills and the purchasing of equipment.
- Badges.
- Equipment needed for Troupe meetings.
