St. Patrick's Scout Group 1st/2nd/5th Louth

We are the biggest Scout Group in Dundalk and have all five sections of Scouting Ireland. ⚜️🥾 St.

Patrick's Scout Group 1st/2nd/5th Louth as a member of Scouting Ireland. Scouting Ireland is a voluntary, non-formal educational movement for young people. It is independent, non-political, open to all without distinction of origin, race, creed or gender, in accordance with the purpose, principles and method conceived by Robert Baden-Powell and as stated by WOSM. The aim of Scouting Ireland is to "encourage the physical, intellectual, social, spiritual and cultural development of its members so that they may achieve their full potential and, as responsible citizens, contribute and improve society." Of the 750,000 people between the ages of 6 and 18 in Ireland, approximately 2.5% participate in Scouting Ireland.

Over the weekend, 1st Louth scouts hiked up to Queen Maeves gap for an investiture. The new scouts said the promise witnessed by their fellow scouts and a few horses. Afterwards the scouts witnessed one of their leaders also being invested into 1st Louth. We then toasted marshmallows and had s'mores to celebrate this occasion. 🔥 Congratulations to all👏👏

Our leaders and a few Rovers have been very busy this weekend clearing out our hall. Yet more behind the scenes volunteering work that nobody usually sees. Fair play to our Group Leader Josh for organising it and doing most of the heavy lifting. Sure it's only an hour a week!!

🌍🇵🇸🇻🇪🇺🇦 5th Louth Scouts went international this week!

The scouts cooked traditional food from Palestine, Venezuela and Ukraine — Varenyk dumplings, Arepas Reina Pepiada and flatbread with Za’atar. And they all went down a treat! 😋

They also learned about how Scouting is currently affected in each country and got to learn a game and about the international neckerchiefs from each one. 🌍⚜️

A great night of food, culture and learning! 🙌🔴🔵

🥾🏕️ What a way to finish their Bronze Chief Scout Award / Bronze Gaisce!

Four 5th Louth Scouts set off from The Lumpers, hiking over Carnavaddy and onto the Táin Way, where they camped at the foot of Slieve Foy. The next morning they continued down into Carlingford, completing a hike of over 25km.

A tough but brilliant 2 days and the final element of their Bronze Award. Great effort from all four — well done! 🔴🔵🪢⚜️

***IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS***

Registration fees are now due for the upcoming scouting year. We will collect the same way as last year through Payzone. The payment link is below. The price this year is €100 an increase on last years €91. This has nothing to do with the scout group. It goes straight to Scouting Ireland. Your child's insurance is included in this cost, so it's important it is paid by October 31st. Please let your child's section leader know when this has been paid. Many thanks.

It is with great sadness that we learned of the sudden passing of Fr Mark O’Hagan.

Fr Mark served as Chaplain to our Scout Group for many years and was a valued part of our Scouting family. He was always so kind, warm and approachable, with a great sense of humour and a genuine interest in our young people and leaders.

He was someone who was always happy to have a chat, share a smile or lend his support, and his presence at our group events and ceremonies was always greatly appreciated.

Fr Mark touched the lives of so many people in Dundalk through his kindness, dedication and service, and we feel very fortunate to have known him and to have had him as part of our Scouting journey.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Fr Mark’s family, friends, former parishioners and all who knew and loved him at this very sad time.
May he rest in peace.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.
