1st Trumpington re-opened its doors in 2017 and has just launched their Scout section in June 2018. As a new fast-growing group, 1st Trumpington offers an exciting programme and opportunity for adults to be part of their leadership team.
The beaver section enjoys a varied programme which includes a wide range of activities such as Pond dipping, gardening, cooking on fire and of course camping. Yearly fun days are highly anticipated offering the chance to try many adventurous activities all in one day, previous events have included climbing, rafting and grass sledging.
The cub section can often be found, gathered around a fire, up a climbing wall or enjoying their latest pioneering project. Cub camp always has a high turnout and is enjoyed by all. Cubs particularly like joining the annual mystery trip, a trip where only the leaders know the destination.
Meanwhile the scout section enjoys learning survivalist skills such as advanced navigating, first aid and of course fires, as well as expeditions, hikes and rafting and they never pass up an opportunity to get into the outdoors and have fun.
Whilst we want children to be our Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Young Leaders we also need Adults to help run the group – not just as Leaders but behind the scenes as well. This new venture in Scouting can only go ahead if we get the people of all ages to make this work.
If you feel you can help give some time (even if it is only 10 minutes a week) or want to contact us regarding Scouting in the Trumpington area please contact us through the details on this page.
