success, is scouting for new talent!

Mereworth and Kings hill scout group is currently over-subscribed with young people waiting to experience scouting, from Beavers 6 to 8yrs, Cubs 8 to 10½ yrs, scouts 10½ to 14 yrs up to explorers aged 14 to 18yrs. With all sections filled to capacity we need to recruit more adults in order to continue to deliver this award winning outdoor adventure programme. it would take just 6 more committed adults to allow the group to take more than 50 children off the waiting list. the scout programmes are about growing and developing children who will become responsible members of our society, living in our villages. scouting not only delivers a couple of hours of fun each week, but educates young people about the environment, life skills, respect and self-respect and responsibility to themselves and their community; and so much more. if you would like to find out more about volunteering opportunities within scouting on Kings hill or in the surrounding area please send an email to Chris, gsl@mkhscouts.org.uk don’t forget to mention the local oracle
