About Us
At Scouts we meet every Friday from 7.30 pm to 9.30 pm
We currently have about 60 Scouts in our troop aged from 10 to 14 years. These are split into 7 patrols, Stag, Fox, Cobra, Wolf, Buffalo, Hawk and Tiger.
Each patrol has its own Patrol Leader and Assistant Patrol Leader.
At Scouts we wear a uniform with our green and white Eccleshall necker –so we know who we are.
At Scouts you will learn loads of new and useful skills such as how to use an axe and bow saw to prepare your firewood; how to light fires and cook using as little equipment as possible; how to build all sorts of things from small catapults to big structures such as swings from ropes and poles (pioneering); perhaps you will go camping, climbing abseiling, kayaking or hiking. One thing is certain – you will make lots of new friends and YOU WILL HAVE FUN!
At Scouts you can work towards lots of badges and awards. Take a look at what you could achieve on the scout page of Scoutbase.

At Eccleshall, we are very lucky to have links with Madla Speidergruppe in Norway. On July 25 2009 a group of scouts (and Explorers) from Eccleshall, together with scouts from Melbourne in Derbyshire, will be travelling to Norway to camp with Madla Speidergruppe.
