The Sea Scout Troop for boys aged 10-14 meets every Friday at the Den between 19:15 and 21:30. The 3rd CB Scout section is one of the most active and popular Scout Troops the area!
The Scout Troop run a very active programme. Regular activities include sailing training expeditions, hillwalking weeks in Derbyshire, and camping, and of course training in all the skills required to do these safely. Others activities include building and launching rocket, a cyclo-cross, night hikes, wide games, cooking, pioneering and camp craft evenings.
The Troop has around 65 Scouts who are split into eight patrols: Stormy Petts (STP), Puffins, Seals, Merlins, Gannets, Curlews, Seagulls and Penguins. Each patrol is run by a Patrol Leader (PL), and his assistant (APL), who are senior boys responsible for training, discipline and general welfare of the Scouts in their charge. There is also a Senior PL (SPL), who is responsible for the day-to-day running of the Troop along with a large team of qualified leaders and instructors.
