This fee comprises your child’s individual insurance and registration with Scouting Ireland, insurance & utilities on the Scout Hall and your child’s weekly dues.

Dear Parents,

As you are aware beavers are asked to wear full uniform to each meeting and each activity this is available from the scout shop on Paul Street. The uniform consists of a blue jumper, and navy scout pants. The Carrigaline neckerchief (Blue and Yellow) is also to be worn. They are very helpful up in there and if you go in and ask for a Beaver Uniform they will help you out.

From the Programme you will be aware that a trip to Camden will take place this Saturday the 24^th, each Beaver is to bring a packed lunch in a bag. Everyone should meet at 12.45 at the turning circle up by the fort in Cross haven.

If you have any Questions please do not hesitate to contact me
