4th New Forest North (Eling) Sea Scouts - the place for outdoor adventure

Our Cub Scouts meet in Totton on Wednesday nights. Cub Scouts are aged 8 to 10. At 10½ they can move up into the Sea Scout Troop. The Cub Leaders are busy planning another exciting programme of events for the Spring Term - see below.

Next Cub Meeting will be held in the Autumn of 2010

The Cubs put their best feet forward to raise money for the ShelterBox Charity

Walking from the old to the new HQ they earned £220 in just under an hour and arrived at the lakes in time to see the sun set. Above they are please to have finished and right doing the boardwalk. (Pictures curtesy of Vanessa Slawson)

GIrls Allowed Triumph In Bryant Trophy

Eling entered 3 teams in this District event which has not been run for the last 10 years or so. Each team had to complete a series of challenges including a First Aid incident, a hostage situation, a nature quest, code breaking, the Promise and Law, a spiders web and a newspaper quiz. We took 1^st and joint 2^nd place (The Golden Eagles) on the day. The 3^rd team (The Chips) fought bravely but did not get a place. Everyone enjoyed the event and used the things they learnt at Cubs to complete the challenges successfully.

Three winning women!

What do the leaders and committee do on their days off from Scouting? They raise funds for Cancer research!

Sanja, Vanessa and Karen have just run the 5km Race for Life in Southampton before getting back to their Scouting duties.

Yes, they all ran – they are very busy people and did not have time to walk the course!

What do other members of the group do in their spare time?
