Scouts
1st
Arrochar Scouts - Run by Mark Sutcliffe, Neil Greenwood and
Eileen Kay. The scouts meet at the Arrochar
Church Hall on Mondays - 6.30pm-8.00pm
Additionally, every Tuesday evening a trip to Helensburgh Swimming Pool (7pm-8pm) is arranged for the Cubs, Beavers and Scouts. If you wish to come along then you need to contact your cub/beaver/scout leader to arrange- own transport is required.
The Scouts have a fun packed calendar of events - both indoor and outdoor. The "kidsoutdoors" initiative was started by The Scout Association in 2008 with the aim of encouraging young people to get outdoors and to be active. Here are some links to show pictures of The Arrochar Scouts' recent activities as uploaded by Andrew: -
