Cub Pack Information
We meet in the Slip Hall (beside the Church of Ireland) in Celbridge on Friday nights from 7:30pm to 9pm.
A Cub Pack is generally divided into small groups called Sixes. A six may have 6-7 Cubs; each Six has a Leader called a ‘Sixer’ and an assistant Leader called a ‘Seconder’ who are chosen from the more experienced Cubs.
The adult leaders take names from Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book and are called either by the first names or by their Jungle Book names (if they have them) i.e. Akela, Baloo, Bagheera etc.
Leaders
Cub Leaders, who are all voluntary, are: Sarah Lane (Akela), Carmel Metcalfe, Brian Callaghan, Anthony McDonald and Declan O'Sullivan.
Generally in a pack meeting we play games, often in teams which helps develop team work and co-operation, and do what we call badge work.
The Cub Pack also has outings, hikes, Pack Holidays, camps and joint outings and trips with other Packs and sometimes joint activities with the Beaver Colony and Scout Troop. We plan to provide a fun packed and challenging programme for all our Cubs.
