"All you have to do is look at the kids to know they’re having an adventure.
Scout camps are a time for them to run loose and be themselves. There’s always
new things for them to do. Mind you, there’s always plenty for us to do too!"
Quote: A Scout leader.
Our Scout Group
1st Rickmansworth Scout Group was formed in 1909 and is the oldest
group to be formed in Rickmansworth. But that's not to say that Scouting
is lodged in the past. Long gone are the days of "dyb dyb dyb"! When you
see some of the things Scouts get up to, you will soon see that we are
one of the most forward thinking and active youth groups in the world.
And in Rickmansworth, we are no different.
From the ages of 6 to 18
their is a youth section for you: Beaver Scouts (6 to 8) Cub Scouts (8
to 10) Scouts (10 to 14) and Explorer Scouts (14 to 18).
And it's not just boys either: Scouts are the largest co-educational
youth organisation in the UK. So come on girls - come and join in.
But it's not just for our young generation - the Scout Network
section caters for 18 to 25's and many adults gain immense satisfaction
from joining in as Leaders and helpers, passing on their life skills and
specialist knowledge to our younger members. There really is something
for everyone at all ages in scouting.
It does not matter who you are,
what you can do or how much time you have to spare, you will be made
very welcome at 1st Rickmansworth Scout Group. Your enthusiasm and a
little of your spare time is all you will need.
We have a great social life too - its not all work!
Why not contact us NOW and join in the fun. Send an email to:
Incidentally - all of the photographs on this web site are of young people
and adults involved in Scouting in Rickmansworth.
We really do have fun and smile an awful lot.
Come on - Join the adventure!
Finding your way around.
It should be easy to find your way around - just use the menu bar of the
left. Things may change from time to time, but that menu will always get you
around the site. Its always worth checking our News and Updates page too - this
is where we will keep you up to date with what's going on on the site - and in
our Scout Group.
Links to the FORUM can be found on the new RESOURCES page, as can the
GALLERY.
Web Site Updates
All of our regulars will notice that it all looks a little different. That's
because we decided it was time to get the "cleaners" in and give the place an
early "spring clean". We will have a awful lot going on during 2007, what with
Scouting's Centenary and all, so we wanted to make sure you had easy access to
everything you needed to know.
"bear with us"
So please bear with us, whilst we get things in order. We will be trying to
get it all sorted out during January. So keep checking back and clicking on new
menu items as you find them. We hope to bring you lots of interesting stuff and
are always interested in hearing about what you would like to see as well.
Please contact the webmaster if you have any ideas for what you would like to
