4th Golcar Scout Group is one of the largest Scout Groups in Huddersfield with over 180 members.
The Scout Group is made up of five sections, Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers.
Squirrels is for young girls and boys, aged between 4 and 6 years old, who can achieve anything they set their minds to – and they have lots of fun along the way.
The one hour meeting is a brilliant opportunity for young people to take their first step into being part of Scouting, and it will also help those young Squirrels get ready for the adventure of school too.
Squirrels meet on Tuesday at 6.00pm – 7.00pm.
Beavers is for young girls and boys, aged between 6 and 8 years old, who want to have lots of fun and adventure and make new friends.
We have two Beaver Colonies:
Wednesday’s colony meets from 6.15pm – 7.15pm
Friday’s colony meets from 6.00pm – 7.00pm.
Beavers do lots of exciting activities, from arts and crafts to beaver sleep overs and weekends away.
Cubs is for young girls and boys, aged between 8 and 10 1/2 years old, who want to make new friends and have fun, adventure and challenges.
We have two Cub Packs that both meet on a Monday Evening from 6.30pm – 8.00pm.
Cubs learn lots of skills whilst taking part in things from Crafts to Camping!
Scouts is for girls and boys, aged between 10 1/2 and 14 years old, who like adventurous activities, learning skills and earning awards.
Our Scout Troop meets on a Friday evening from 7.15pm – 9.00pm.
Scouts take part in lots of different adventures from Camping to Climbing, Abseiling to Hill Walking whilst learning life skills and making new friends!
Explorer Scouts is for girls and boys, aged between 14 and 18 years old, who want that little bit more out of life!
Our Explorer Scout Unit meets on a Wednesday evening from 7.30pm – 9.00pm.
Explorers undertake many challenges and adventures ranging from Hiking to Geocaching, Camping to Parascending whilst also learning how to well in teams and deal with problem solving situations.
They also work towards their Duke of Edinbugh’s Award and Queen’s Scout Award, both of which are a great addition to their C.V’s.
