A brilliant evening across all our sections yesterday as we joined together for a special Owain Glyndŵr hike! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🥾

With Owain Glyndŵr Day recently celebrated, we took to the local trails to walk in the footsteps of Welsh history, capped off with a fascinating visit to Corwen Museum to dive deeper into the story of the Last Prince of Wales. To top off an adventurous night, the group also got a crash course in geocaching,.📍🧭

A massive shout out and heartfelt thank you to Mike, Mike, and Dylan from Amgueddfa Corwen Museum (and no, that's not a typo, two Mikes, double the expertise!). They stepped in to host us at very short notice and delivered a fantastic experience that kept everyone thoroughly engaged from start to finish. Local community support like this makes all the difference to what we can offer our young people.

Take a look through the photos below to see what we got up to! 👇📸

🚤 Scouts Take to the Water at Llyn Brenig! 🌊

Last week, our Scouts had an incredible day out at Llyn Brenig, taking part in and completing their RYA Level 1 Powerboating course! 🛥️

Under the expert instruction of our Scout Leaders Gary and Ellis, who are also members and instructors for Brenig Sailing Club, the Scouts spent the day learning the fundamentals of powerboating, including boat handling, launching and recovery, basic manoeuvring, steering, stopping and controlling a powerboat safely on the water. They also learnt about safety, awareness and the responsibilities that come with being in charge of a boat.

And, of course, there was plenty of time to put those new skills into practice! 😃

A huge thank you to Gary and Ellis for giving up their time, sharing their knowledge and running such a fantastic course for our Scouts.

We'd also like to say a massive thank you to Brenig Sailing Club for putting the course on for us and providing the boats, equipment and, of course, such a fantastic venue and location for the day. ⛵👏

All of the Scouts had an amazing day, learned some fantastic new skills and, most importantly, made plenty of great memories along the way. ❤️

We’re incredibly proud of them all!

🎥 Here’s a little look at what they got up to…

📢 CRITICAL UPDATE: WE NEED YOUR HELP TO KEEP BEAVERS OPEN!📢
We are reaching out to our wonderful Corwen community with an urgent request. Our 1st Corwen Beaver Scout section is currently at risk of closing due to a shortage of volunteer leaders.

We don’t want to let our 6–8 year olds down, and we don't want to lose this vital group, but we are in desperate need of more help. Please know that you wouldn't be doing this alone - we have a fantastic existing team of volunteers who are ready to support you. If we don’t find a few more people to join our ranks, we will unfortunately have to close the section.

Could you be the person who helps us keep the adventure going?
No previous experience is needed - just a positive attitude and a desire to help. We provide full training and plenty of support. When we’ve been in similar situations before, our community has stepped up, and we are hoping for that same incredible support again! 🙌

Interested in finding out more? We would love to have a no-pressure chat with you about what’s involved:
📧 Email us: [email protected]

Please share this post far and wide! You might be the reason we stay open! 💙

Tonight we enjoyed a session with local PCSO Einir. Einir talked about stranger danger, how to keep ourselves safe online and out playing. Einir even brought along examples and talked about the dangers of drugs. We also had fun 'getting arrested' with her handcuffs, trying on different police hats, wearing drunk goggles and having our fingerprints taken too.

A BIG thank you to 2nd Rhuthun Scout Group for our donation of the Gazebo, very much appreciated 👏

🛑 CAN YOU HELP SAVE 1ST CORWEN SCOUTS? 🛑

We are reaching out to the Corwen community with an urgent request.

Due to new national Charity Commission regulations, 1st Corwen Scout Group is required to appoint a formal Trustee Board (a small committee to help with behind-the-scenes governance). Currently, we don’t have one, and without it, the Area team has informed us that the group is at risk of closure.

We’ve cleared many hurdles over the years, but we can't clear this one without 5 volunteers from our community.

What does a Trustee do?

It’s not about camping, knots, or wearing a uniform!

It’s about 3 or 4 short meetings a year to oversee the "business" side of the group (admin, finance, or just general oversight).

You don’t need to be a Scouting expert; we just need people with common sense who want to see 1st Corwen continue to thrive.

Come and find out more (No pressure to sign up!):
📅 When: Thursday, 14th May
⏰ Time: 7:00 PM
📍 Where: The Function Room, Owain Glyndwr (OG), Corwen

Whether you are a former Scout, a local professional, a retiree with some spare time, or just someone who wants to ensure the youth of Corwen have a place to learn and grow, we would love to see you there.

Please help us keep the adventure going for our kids. ⚜️

Cubs & Scouts Lead the Way at Corwen Allotments! 🌿🎨

We are so incredibly proud of our Cubs and Scouts who kicked off our service week at the Corwen Allotments. They were the "advance party," working hard to prepare the site before our brilliant Beavers arrived for their session!

These young people didn't just turn up; they did the heavy lifting to support the wonderful Grow to Give project. While the Beavers did a fantastic job following in their footsteps, our Cubs and Scouts were responsible for:

🎨 Painting the sheds (check out that transformation in the photo!)

🚜 Moving and laying heavy compost

🌱 Clearing beds and planting out

Being a Scout is all about serving the community, and these guys showed exactly how it's done. The flowers and produce grown here go directly to people in our local community, and we are so glad our group could lead the charge to help this project flourish.

A huge thank you to the Corwen Allotment team for having the whole troop. We might have gone home with a bit of paint on our clothes, but we also went home with a lot of pride!

Check out the "Before and After" below to see the incredible difference they made! 📸👇

So, so proud of our Beavers tonight- helping out in the allotments. They prepped beds, planted shallots, peas and beans and went on to play in the park after their hard work.
