Beavers

Beaver Scouts is for boys and girls aged 6 to 8 years old. Oranmore Beaver Scouts typically meet every Monday evening at 6.45 to 8pm in Maree Community Centre or Renville Lower Carpark. At meetings they play team games, engage in arts and craft and learn Scouting skills like hiking, camping, knots, first aid and cooking.

The activities are all geared to allow each Beaver Scout to develop in the areas of Social, Physical, Intellectual, Character, Emotional & Spiritual growth according to their own abilities and particular interests.

Weekly meetings are only half the story. They also go on outdoor adventures – walks, treasure hunts, one or two night camps, litter-picking, parading on Saint Patrick’s Day, slumber parties in hostels or Scout Dens Children of this age love the outdoors and once they have the RIGHT GEAR, won’t mind a bit of rain. They also handle overnights without parents surprisingly well, often it’s a first taste of independence.
