Venue: Locally (enquire for exact location) One of the things that cubs are best known for is camping. We offer several camps each year -normally one in tents, one in a building in the winter when it's a bit colder, one at the hut for the older cubs only, and one with a Cub's father - if they can be persuaded! We don't just go camping or go on outings and trips. Cub Scouting is designed as an educational experience as well, and is designed to strengthen the young person both mentally, physically and spiritually.
