It was a cold weekend with lows of -1°C living up to the name of ‘SubZero’. Over the course of the weekend our young people had the chance to try: Segways, Mud Karts, Paradrop, Climbing, Archery, Air Rifle Shooting and many more activities! There was even an outdoor pool party. The weekend was a great opportunity and great experience for all involved. Below you can see the wonderful snowy scene that greeted us on Sunday morning along with the aftermath trying to dry tents at the hall. Until the next camp…

Burns Night Ceilidh 2018 13 December 2017 (updated 9 August 2021) | By user Our fundraising team have been busy planning our first fundraising event for 2018! New for 2018 we will be having a on Saturday 27th January in the Scout hall. Tickets for the event will be £10 per person. This includes a live ceilidh band on the evening, a wee dram of whiskey and a taster of haggis, neeps and tatties. There will be a full bar on the night so the event is for over 18s only. Given that we need a dance floor for a wee jig the tickets will be limited so buy them quick to avoid disappointment! All funds raised go towards keeping your child’s scouting adventure going and providing the much-needed funds for the hall structural works. We hope this event will prove a great success, as always we need your support to make it great! Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/379373315841556/
