This year we will be having our End of Year activity on the weekend of 16th – 18th June.
We will be camping in Kilcully Scout Centre, Co.Cork and participating in a wide range of activities in The Glen Resource Centre on Saturday 17th June. Please see the arrangements relevant to your sons section below. A deposit of €20 is required to secure a place with the balance payable the week before the event at your son’s weekly meeting. An equipment list will follow in due course to those attending.
Beavers: (only one overnight stay)
- Saturday June 17th: Meet at the Glen Resource Centre at 9:45 am for activities until 4pm. Then, by bus they'll go to Kilcully Campsite where there will be games, a BBQ and campfire.
- Sunday June 18th: Breakfast followed by Treasure Hunt. Beavers can be collected at 1pm.

All members have the option of the 1 night programme as outlined for Beavers above. Camping for 2 consecutive nights is a requirement of the Level 3 Camping Skills Badge which we would hope that all those who camp for 2 nights would achieve.
We are looking forward to using our new tents over this weekend.
To secure a place, and to allow us to confirm numbers please pay a deposit of €20, enclosed in an envelope clearly labelled with your son’s name by May 15th
