The time has arrived, We have been telling you about this for some time, so this weekend we will  be attempting to climb Carrantuohill.

We will be staying in the Killarney International Youth Hostel on Friday 30th of April until Monday 3rd of May.

The cost is  €60 each, this covers Accomodation , food and transport. 

The plan is to meet at the hall on Friday night at 07.30, we will be heading off shortly afterwards so dont be late.

It will be a late arrival into our Hostel on Friday night and everyone will be going  straight to bed,  so make sure you have your dinner before you leave.

The hostel is really good and it has loads of woods for wide games and the like. Check it out here.

Saturday will be a relaxing day viewing the sights of Killarney and planning our hike.

Sunday will be an early rise because     

the plan is to climb this >>>

Weather permitting. [and not from this particular side either]

We also hope to do some lightweight camping in the Hags Glenn as part of it – again weather permitting.

So hopefully we can get a group picture similar to this  >>>>>

Plan is to be home Monday early afternoon.

We need to know as soon as possible how many Scouts are going so please let either Lisa or Shay know whether ornot you are coming with us.

Gear list will follow shortly.

Hi everyone, just a few words to say many thanks to all of you,  and your families for the cards and messages about my Dad. To all of you that attended the funeral, a special thank you, it was really nice to see you all there. Looking forward to seeing you all next Thursday.

Dont forget we are going to Kerry for the Bank Holiday weekend, we will put the details up in the next day or so. The cost will be EU 60 each.

Hi All, hope you are all enjoying your Easter holidays. Reminder there is no Troop Meeting this Thursday 01st April, or next Thursday 8th April,  There is a Scout troop from Belgium staying in our den so it is unavailable.  There will be a hike to Glendalough with the Belgian Scouts on Sunday 11th April, it wil be limited to about 15 Scouts from Raven Troop due to transport limitations, so if you want to go leave a message saying so. 

Well done to our Team which entered  the County Shield competition last weekend, while they did not win they performed excellently, a big thank you to all of them for giving up their time. 

hope you all have a great  Easter

Hi All, hope you are all keeping well. 

Well done to Sarah and Tamara who were invested last Thursday. You both looked very smart in your Uniforms, make sure you keep up the excellent standard. 

As you know we had some Scouts who were up in Rostrevor for the weekend and the word is, that it was a brilliant weekend.  Shay visited on Saturday and watched them do the bouldering in the Mourne Mountains, it looked really great fun. The word back from the other Leaders is that you all behaved excellently, so well done to Eimear, Samantha, Emma O M, Rachel H, Tamara, Eva, Ellen, Eoin and Tony. You can tell us all about it on Thursday. Hopefully some pictures will be up by the end of the week. 

This Friday will see some of our senior Scouts participate in the County shield competition, so best wishes from all the Troop to Michelle, Emma M, Rachel B, Matthew, Conor, Ciaran, Sean and Darragh. Big thanks to Ian and Dave for all thier work over the last few weeks.  Just do your best thats all you can do.
