The Discovery pack is a mixed pack of both Girls and Boys between the ages of 7year and 11years.  

We have 5 Sixes at the moment, Black, Tawny, Grey, White & Blue. Our numbers stand at 25 invested Cubs and 5 recruits. 

We have 5 Pack Scouters, Akela (Mary Hagens), Kim (Alison Powell), Bagherra (Penny Harris), Baloo (Stuart Veal) and Chil (Terence Vrugtman) all the leaders in the pack get Jungle Book names. 

 

The Cub Trail is split into age groups. Cheetahs 7-8 years, Leopards 8-9 years, Lions 9-10 years and Leaping Wolfs 10 - 11 years. 

In between doing their Advancement work, they also work on getting Interest badges there are a great many to choice from. We try and encourage the Cubs to at least try and work on as many badges as they can. 

 

This year we are going to try and get the Pack to do as many outings as possible and also to hold another Pack Camp towards the end of the Year. 

 

Over the weekend of the 21-22 February we held a most successful camp at Gilwell, there were 19 Cubs on camp and we had 3 day visitors come in to join us as we are only able to take cubs over the age of 9 years camping. Our theme was Robinson Crusoe. We had two great cooks cooking for us and nobody says they went hungry over the week end.

At the BP Parade on the 22nd  February the pack was rewarded a Silver Star Pack Certificate. It was only our numbers which stopped us from getting a gold star as we needed 24 cubs in the pack over the year and we had only 22 cubs. 

 

Akela & Kim will be attending the bi-annual Pac Yac over the 20-22 March at the Full Gospel Church Camping Grounds in Irene, these are great weekends were a lot of new ideas are exchanged and a lot of fun is held.
