Jupiter Cubs gain top Award

Report Date 24/09/07

Alex Kinsella and Hywel Brace both received their Chief Scout's Silver Award at Camp, rather than at a normal meeting in the HQ. Nigel Vallette, the District Commissioner for Havant Scouting commented that only 1 in every 10 young people who join Cub Scouts gain this, the top award so both Alex and Hywel should feel both proud and very special.

For their awards, Alex and Hywel completed challenges in a range of skills including Camping, Creative, Caring and Fitness as well as gaining a number of activity badges. They also completed a personal challenge.

In congratulating the two Cubs, Ian Hawke thanked the Leaders and Parents for their time, effort and energy in helping Alex and Hywel to gain this badge.
