Hi all,
A reminder that we are meeting at 11 am at the Den tomorrow, Sunday 10th March.
We will be heading to The Shackleton Exhibition in Dún Laoghaire and will head to the cinema after.
It will cost €10 for both the exhibition and cinema.
See you all tomorrow!
Check out 2 of Ireland’s greatest explorers – Tom Crean and Ernest Shackleton in this video
Hi All,
So the weather decided to change our plans – we’ll do the cycle in the Phoenix Park at a later date. The guy that does the bike hire won’t be open on Sunday due to weather – there may even be snow!
We’re going to head to the awesome Shackleton Exhibition, check out the legend that is Tom Crean and his mates (a bit of snow wouldn’t have stopped them!!!) and then head to the cinema after.
You can check out the exhibition here : Shackleton Exhibition
They do a Scout rate cos it’s so suited to us. It’ll be €2.70 to get into the Exhibition, then there’ll be the price of the cinema and fuel for the bus.
We’ll have a final price tomorrow. Don’t forget your Special Interest Badge material. Also, each Patrol will be presenting their Patrol Activity.
Hi All,
We’re planning to head into the Phoenix Park next Sunday.
The plan is to rent bikes and explore one of the largest walled city parks in Europe!!
We might see a few deer, the Pope’s Cross and maybe even spot the President of Ireland strolling about!!
We will give full details at the meeting on Thursday – See you then.
Also, don’t forget Special Interest Badges and each Patrol will be giving a presentation on their Patrol Activity so bring any photos or items you want for your presentation.
Hi Ravens,
The Cubs are running a Cake Sale on Sunday which will start at 9:30am. It’s on in the Den and will be on for a few hours…..as long as there are goodies left.
It’d be great if you could spread the word and support them. Make sure to get there early to get all the best stuff.
The leaders favourite cakes are chocolate eclairs…… just saying.
Check out the video of – Ryan Dolan – “Only Love Survives” below:
The voting for Eurovision will be on “The Late Late Show” on Friday so make sure and check it out!
See you all tomorrow! We’ll be working on our Special Interest Badges and reporting on Patrol Activities so bring along anything you need for planning.
Hi all, just to remind you there is no Troop Meeting this Thursday 14th February. Hope you are all enjoying your mid term break.
Hi All,
We will be heading out this evening and uniform will not be needed.
You do need your neckerchief as ALWAYS!
As you will be outside you must wear warm raingear.
Hi Scouts and Parents,
Most of you will already be aware that the Brackenstown Scout Group publishes the Swords Trade Directory annually. The directory is the group’s single biggest fundraiser and all the profits from it go back directly to the scouts in Brackenstown.
This coming Saturday 2nd January the group will be meeting at 10am at the Brackenstown Scout Den to deliver the directory around Swords.
In order to complete the delivery on the day we need
All scouts must be present. If there is a genuine reason a scout cannot make it the scout must attend the meeting on Monday with a note from their parent with a brief explanation.
If a scout is attending an entrance exam that morning they can still come to help in the afternoon.
Of course every bit of help is greatly appreciated!
Hi all,
A reminder that the AGM will be held tonight in the Den at 8:00pm.
We hope to see lots of you and your parents there tonight.
The Leaders
