Congratulations to Edwin (L) and Edward (R) who both earned their Chief Scout Acorns Awards this morning. This is the highest award a Squirrel can achieve during their time with us before moving on to Beavers.

Edwin has been very busy at home building homes for his toy monkey out of wood, demonstrating his abilities to use woodworking tools safely and correctly.

Edward also received his 2 year joining in badge this morning, he has worked very hard towards all his badges and has really developed his confidence and come out of his shell making many friends in Squirrels.

Last Saturday’s 3rd Skipton Scouts Talent Showcase was a wonderful evening.It was fantastic to see so many talents from our 3rd Skipton family on display.

The night was filled with fun, energy, and confidence-building moments ,a brilliant way to kick off this year’s event.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to support and encourage the young performers.

We’re already looking ahead to making it even bigger and better next year, so start preparing now… we can’t wait to see what you’ll bring.

It was lovely to meet the young people and parents / grandparents who came to the Under 5's Stay and Play and Story Time at Skipton Library today. It was a pleasure to speak to you and chat about scouting and Squirrels and show you some of the many exciting things that we get up to during our meetings. I hope that we see you all soon at one of our meetings so we can show you what we are like for real!

Please pop in to Skipton library between now and the 24th to see some of the many activities that they have to offer during this event, it's really important to support your local library! (plus the staff there are Local Superheroes!)

We are also looking for people to fill a variety of roles across South Craven District, if you have ever thought about joining scouts or finding out more about what volunteering with scouts entails please contact [email protected] for more details.
