SCOUTS
 
 
(12-15 years) and Ventures (15 – 17 years) meet on Friday nights in Taney Parish Hall from 8.00pm – 10.00pm and participate in a range of outdoor activities including camping, kayaking, hiking, pioneering, rock climbing, raft building and mountain biking at different times throughout the year.
 
Scouts is a great opportunity for 12 – 15 year-old boys and girls to come together and learn new skills of teamwork, leadership and life skills. We always welcome new young people to our troop so please contact our Group Scout leader for more information. To enable us to give our scouts these new skills, we need more adult leaders as we are currently short of leaders. If you have a spare couple of hours on a Friday, this is a great opportunity to make friends and learn new outdoor skills.
 
VENTURES
 
Ventures are a mixed gender youth lead section, aged 15 - 17, with Ventures planning and organising most of their own activities. To further support Ventures, the troop would welcome young Adult leaders, who would like to mentor the Venture group and participate in their outdoor activities. Scouting Ireland offers comprehensive training to leaders including Mountain Leader Training, Backwoods Skills, First Aid and other Adventure Skills training to those interested.
