Welcome to Mercury Cub Pack

Welcome to mercury cubs, we meet on a Thursday 7.15-8.45 at St Andrews church term time only.

The pack is run by Ian Meadows and Richard Thorn.

We think scouting should be fun and we look to run a varied programme, we want the cubs to work towards badges but we also want to expose the children to opportunities they wouldn’t normally get to see, for instance we have run sleepovers at London zoo Bed Bugs, Natural History Museum Dino Snores, Secret Nuclear Bunker and HMS Belfast.

We also don’t forget our legacy and want to keep to traditional outdoor scout activities and skills such as backwards cooking, camping and life skills and do an outside camp every year. We also get involved in District events such as Soap box derby, Scooter Challenge, Air Rifle and Archery completions.

We are closely linked with Dragon cub pack and run a yearly bowling competition and an end of year summer water fight with them.

We look forward to welcoming you to Mercury Cub Pack
