2nd Brooklands Scout Group

Welcome to 2nd Brooklands Cub Scouts!

A big welcome from Akela to 2nd Brooklands Cub Scouts. We are a busy pack and are very proud of what we achieve during the year as a pack and individuals. Our Cubs are generally aged 8 to 10½. Most enter via Beavers but a few either join the movement directly as Cubs or transfer in when they move home. As with the other sections, girls are welcome to join.

Cubs is about participating in a wide range of activities with others of a similar age. This can mean learning technical skills, such as rock climbing, leadership skills as a Sixer and social skills when playing games. But the emphasis is on hands-on participation. Through their efforts the Cubs are able to gain badges they can proudly display on their uniform.

Cub Scouts also get to go on trips and days out, to places like the zoo, Stockport WW2 air-raid shelter or a farm, or go camping as a Pack or with the Group overall. This means sleeping in tents rather than huts, cooking and looking after themselves and doing loads of outdoor activities. The value of camping should not be underestimated - the Cubs bond together and get to see in detail how others behave and their attitudes/thoughts/actions.

2nd Brooklands Cubs meet on a Tuesday evening at 6:30 in St John's Church Hall. Either contact the Scout Leader David Hughes (phone number on Contacts page) or pop along on a Tuesday evening for an informal chat.
