Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers & Leaders all gathered today to join in the service and parade on Remembrance Sunday in Ashbourne. 

All together, we were over 114 strong. 

As leaders, we would like to say a massive well done to our Young People who did us proud! We are already recieving well earnt compliments on your behaviour from members of the public so thank you. 

As always, thank you to our leaders who give up their own time so we can all participate in these important services and days. 

Puma Pack have been working with the Royal British Legion this term to remember the Soldiers who fought in War from Ashbourne. 

Each Cub has taken responsibility for the grave and the memory of one Soldier, learning about their lives, as well as cleaning the graves and laying a ceramic poppy, which they made themselves, on the grave.

The work has been co-ordinated by Ashbourne Royal British Legion member, Ann Smith, as well as Mary Webster of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

This project has become much of a passion for the Cubs and Leaders, teaching the Cubs about the importance played by individuals during war, and also how important it is to make sure that their memory is protected and respected.

Thank you Royal British Legion for supporting us through this amazing journey.

We held our annual Group Camp in June! 

This involves a Weekend residential trip with the Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. We spend 2 nights away where the Young People all participate in activities such as Jacobs Ladders, Crate Building, Orienteering, cooking lunch over a fire and many more!

We have a camp fire on the Saturday Night and sing camp songs! It really is the highlight of the year. 

Thank you to Paul and Gill for organising this year, please see photos below of what we got up to!

We are very excited to announce that due to continued demand in Ashbourne we are opening a second Beaver Colony!

Pine Colony will run on a Monday Night and will mirror the programme run by Cedar. 

Sian and Rob have moved over from Cedar Colony to lead Pine, and are joined by Martin and Louise! We look forward to all of the adventures we will go on and to be able to give more 6-8 year olds the oppertunity to join in the fun of Scouting.
