Our Beavers and Cubs kicked off their camping in 2026 with an overnight at our den. For quite a few of our new members it was their first ever time camping. Sadly for our leaders though, the late night didn't prevent a 5am start 🤣

Our scouts, cubs and beavers had a fantastic time on our annual trip to the Prosperous Drama panto. As always a great performance with plenty of fun and laughs. Huge thanks to Croí Laighean Credit Union whose grant funding allowed us to provide a lovely Christmas treat for our youth members

Last night we held our now annual Hallowe'en party! Unfortunately the weather didn't play ball for our planned outdoor campfire but we still made the most of it with games and treats and a disco to finish!

Our Beavers and Cubs got a day out bowling each this month (and the Cubs got to go to lasertag as well!). The group was grateful that both were paid for by the generous support of the Community Grant from Kildare County Council

Great weekend of camping in Larchill for our cubs and scouts section. A trip to Zippit completed our weekend adventure. Many thanks to Croí Laighean Credit Union, Kildare and Wicklow ETB Training Services- LYCGS and Kildare County Council Community grant whose grant funding allows us to take our youth members on camps at significantly reduced cost to families.

We’re looking for leaders!
We urgently need leaders across our Beavers and Cubs section, and we need extra leaders for our Scouts section for future expansion.

Without extra leaders we can’t take on anyone from our waiting list.

If you’d consider joining as a leader please e-mail your info over to Paul on [email protected] and we’ll run through what’s involved.

This Christmas the group is collecting non-perishable food items on behalf of St Vincent de Paul to make up Christmas Food Hampers.

At this time of year, it is especially difficult for households in need, and we are asking (if you can) to make a small donation in the form of food or toiletries.

So, the next time you go shopping, perhaps buy an extra box of cereal, or a few cans of beans, peas, veg, fruit, a hand soap or shower-gel, a box of sweets, chocolate, biscuits, soft drinks, cordial - basically anything that is non-perishable.

There are two large plastic boxes inside the door of the den to drop items off during den meets and we'll gladly receive items up until the 8th of December.
