113th Glasgow (Burnside)
Scout Group
Age 8 to 10.5
Each week
Cubs take part in a wide range of activities designed to be interesting and challenging. Meetings consist of games and activities with plenty of time spent outdoors.
Trips and activities
Cubs take part in the fun and excitement of camps and sleepovers. It may be the first time they spend a night away from home so it’s a real adventure for them.
What it costs
Scouting is an affordable way of providing a range of exciting and adventurous activities for your child.
In a recent survey, 75% of parents said Scouting provided the best value for money compared to other activities like sports and martial arts groups, youth clubs and drama or music classes.
There is currently an annual fee of only £80 which covers weekly activities. Day trips and camps are charged separately, but are normally subsidised by the scout group.
Uniform
Beavers wear core uniform of a coloured sweatshirt. They will also wear a special group scarf.
The uniform can either be bought using the shop link above, or from the Scout Shop in Elmbank Street. You can also ask the leaders for more information.
We don’t want young people to miss out through financial hardship. If concerns about finances may prevent your child taking part in Scouting or some activities, speak to your local leader, as some assistance may be available in confidence.
