Cubs

Welcome to the Cub page! 

You’re perhaps not sure about what Cubs do, so here’s some of what we get up to
(although there’s lots more): 

• We learn new skills
• Do badgework
• Go camping (indoors, and outdoors under canvas)
• Make things (tasty items and craft ones too)
• Have visits from the Fire and the Police Services
• Go on visits ourselves
• Make new friends and learn to work in teams

What’s not to like about that?
Are you interested in coming along?  If so, here’s some information which will help:

• Cubs are for young people aged 8 to 10½
• We meet on Tuesday nights from 7.00 pm to 8.30 pm in Trinity Church halls
• Sometimes we meet outside the halls, but you’ll always be advised of that.
• Cub Badge Poster:    Cub-Scout-Badge-Poster-A3_pre-1

That’s all the serious information, now on to the fun stuff which shows what what’s going on and what we’ve been up to.  

August to December 2025

Here’s some of what we’re getting up to in the coming months, remembering fun and games are always part of our weekly meetings:

• Going Up Ceremony – this was our 2nd week back, and is for all Sections of the Group.  In our case, it’s where the Cubs who were of age moved up to the Scouts.
• Camp at Blair Drummond Safari Park – this was right at the start of the session and it was brilliant.  Some of the Cubs who moved to the Scouts the week before joined us and enjoyed their last Cub camp, now looking forward to Scout camps.
• Teamwork challenges
• World Badge and Investitures for new Cubs
• Disability Awareness (to tie in with International Sign Language Day)
• Communicator Badge (as part of International Translation Day)
• Fire Safety – we’re tying this in with Guy Fawkes’ Night
• St Andrew’s Night
• Christmas Craft Night
• Going Up Ceremony – this is the second one of the year which helps our numbers as members flow through our Scout Group

Among that we have the District Sports Day, the annual Remembrance Service and the District Quiz, all of which we’ll take part in.

January to June 2025

Here’s a flavour of some of what we did this session:

• Australia Night
• Burns Night
• Italian Night
• Recognising ‘International Tall Tales Day’
• Pancakes – always a favourite, especially chocolate and strawberries!
• Book Reader Badge
• Easter Crafts
• Cyclist Badge
• Water Activities
• Disability Awareness
• Games Nights, although we play a game or two every night

You’ll see there’s lots going on at 2nd Renfrew Cubs.  If you’d like to give us a try, we’ll be delighted to see you, so come along or get in touch with us at 2ndrenfrewtrinityscoutgroup@gmail.com.
