At tonight’s Explorer Scout meeting it was decided that from January 2012, the Phoenix Explorer Scout Unit will meet weekly.

With an increasingly busy programme of activities, this will allow the Explorer Scouts to take part in a wide and varied Unit programme, to take part in Scout County activities and to undertake their Duke of Edinburgh’s Award programme as well as work towards their Chief Scouts Award and Explorer Scout activity badges.

At this evening’s meeting Explorer Scouts were presented with a variety of participation badges for up to nine year’s membership in the Scout Association as well as staged awards for nights away (camping and other residential experiences) and hikes away.

For full details of the Unit programme see the on-line calendar for meeting dates.
