Scouts is lead by Dave Henderson (aka Skip), and supported by a team of Leaders.
The joining age is 10 1/2yrs for both boys and girls.
During the summer we meet at a local Sailing Centre, WOSC, where we allow the Scouts to either learn to Sail or Kayak or both. Most Scout groups stop meeting during the summer holidays, but this is the best time for us! The winter season consists of evenings spent at Cokthorpe learning key Scouting skills, like fire lighting, compass and map work, rope work and playing team games.
