For Cub Scouts, aged between eight and ten and a half, a key part of their development is building confidence. This can be a whole lot of fun, as they take part in a variety of exciting adventures and activities that encourage personal growth and teamwork.
Cubs will learn how to put up tents and how to prepare a good, safe campsite. They also learn the other essential aspects of camping, such as the importance of keeping hydrated and knowing what gear is required on camping trips and hikes.
They begin to understand the importance of "Leave No Trace" and our impact on the environment. These are fundamental principles of the Scout Movement.How well do you know the camping essentials? Test your knowledge with our quick-fire quiz.
