Probadge

The Pro-Badge scheme is operated by the local Scout Training Centre at Lyons Copse.

Organised and run by trained scouting leaders in a custom built centre, Pro-Badge offers cubs the chance to earn a range of badges in the company of other cubs from packs within the District. This takes the form of a weekend stay at the centre, during which time the children work through the requirements of the badge. The badges offered all contain elements which benefit from the expertise of these trained leaders and are rarely covered on normal cub sessions.

The cost of each weekend is £35 (this includes all food).

The weekend provides your child with:

Date Badge
24-26 October 2008 Outdoor Challenge
28-30 November 2008 Adventure
23-25 January 2009 Global Conservation
20-22 February 2009 Map Reader (Cubs must be 9)
24-26 April 2009 Naturalist

If your Cub is interested in attending any of the courses please contact Les Farrington on 07761 912914 for an application form. If you would like to know more details just ask one of our Cubs who have already attended a course or, why not check out the Probadge website. When you have booked your place please let Akela or Cougar know so that we can organise your badge.
