Virtual Scouting - The Great Indoors
The Scout Association have created a great site which is a great place to start: The Great Indoors and there are over 200 activities and growing you can do indoors.
The 1st Chirk Scout Group will be releasing regular posts with activities relevant to each section to earn parts of badges for that section, these might be activities already available in the main Scout Association website, but more tailored to our programmes, so you know the activities you are completing are earning badges while having fun doing the number of activities at home on offer.
