ST MARY'S PARISHIONERS AT WORKSCOUTSSt Mary's Chorley Scout GroupBeaver ColonyWHAT IS BEAVER SCOUTING
Beaver Scouts are young people usually aged between 6 and 8 years old. They
belong to the first and youngest in the Scouting family. Young people can join
Beaver Scouts in the three months leading up to their sixth birthday. They can
move on to the next section, Cub Scouts, between 8 and 8 1/2 years old.
Easily recognized by their distinctive turguoise sweatshirts . BeaverScouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on visits and helping others
as well as gaining Activity and Challenge Badges.
Beavers go on organised Sleepovers sometimes with other Colony’s.These are often the first time a young person spends a night away from home.
They take place in suitable buildings, often Scout Centres, and are a great experience and opportunity for fun. At St. Mary’s we also have a group camp when the Beavers join our Cubs and Scouts for one night.
