About Cub Scouts

There are loads of fun things that you can do as a Cub Scout. You will get a chance to try lots of different activities like swimming, music, exploring, computing and collecting. If you do them properly you will get a badge which you can wear on your uniform.

Cub Scouts also get to go on trips and days out, to places like the zoo, theme parks or a farm. Often you will be able to go camping with the rest of your Pack. This will mean you sleeping in a tent and doing loads of outdoor activities.

What a Cub Scout Wears

Cub Scouts wear a full uniform. Scouting is a uniformed organisation and the uniform tells everyone that you are a Cub Scout. For instance, people can tell what Pack you belong to by looking at the colour of your scarf.

The uniform consists of:

• Dark Green long sleeved Sweatshirt
• Group Scarf
• Blue Activity Trousers (optional)

How do you Join?

Perhaps you know a friend who is a Cub Scout...ask them if you can come along to a meeting and see what all the fuss is about. Ask your parent to look at the Our People page to find the details of the people who help at Overstone 46th Scouts. Or email us using the Contact Us page.

We will be glad to let you stay for a night or two to see what it is like. You will need to bring your parent/guardian along so that a few forms can be filled in. If you enjoy Scouting ( and many people do!) you can find out how to become a full member from the leaders.
