The leaders and children take part in a lot of Pack and District activities.
The Pack have an annual camp in Swansea around, May,
where the children try to gain their Campers badge as well as Swimmers and Athletes.
The Pack actively take part in the new award scheme, with the children achieving a
number of badges as individuals and groups e.g.
- The Road Safety.
- Home Help.
- Explorers Badges.
- Craftsman.
- Cycling.
- First Aid.
- Map Readers.
- Artists.
- Handyman.
- Gardening.
- Sportsman.
- Collectors.
- Book Readers.
- Musician. (There is a high standard of music played at Pack nights).
Some evenings in the summer require older clothes and some daring to play
slider hockey!
Other trips that take place throughout the year are for example: R.N.L.I.
Lifeboat station at Penarth, the fire stations in the local area (which normally turn out to be wet evenings for the staff!),
the Police station at Fairwater (where the children really enjoy the control room and
cells, where some got locked up!), to the South Wales Echo & The
Millennium Stadium.
The Pack has an annual fund raising Craft fair which takes place in November,
ready for Christmas. They have done a variety of things in the past ;
for example, painted plant pots, planted hyacinths, made calendars and brought in their toys
and books to sell. During the evening they serve tea and coffee and sell
cakes, which they have made.
During the year they also take part in the Village Carnival which takes place
during June.
The Pack would like to thank leaders, helpers and parents who make the Cubs
a success.
