A big well done to our 136th cub Scouts on completing their 20km hike today. From our den in Swords through Malahide Castle and down to Portmarnock beach for lunch and then right along the coastline through Malahide village and then Seabury and back to our den in Swords. πππ

A busy finish to 2024 for the 136th cubs with a Christmas scavenger hunt around Swords then a trip to Wonderlights in Malahide Castle and then finishing up with a bowling and Lazertag evening in the Leaduredome Ashbourne. Hereβs to 2025 ποΈ
A massive well done to the Swords Rover Scout Section, and to each and every one of the beavers, cubs and Scouts who participated in the Christmas charity shoe box appeal the Rovers coordinated this year. The shoe boxes will put a smile on the faces of many children who without this generosity might not have received anything this Christmas. The charity Crosscause will be delivering the shoe boxes to children in need throughout Romania and Ukraine. These shoe boxes might be the only presents these children will receive, making this contribution incredibly special. Together, we can make this season one filled with hope, kindness, and smiles.
Once again well done to the Rover Section
Clodagh, Andrew and Eoghan .
