Beavers on the brink of extinction

Hodnet Beaver Scout colony is currently experiencing unsustainably low numbers.  In recent months numbers have dropped to such a low level that subs are not meeting costs and the colony may have to disband. Once disbanded, starting a colony up again in the future may be difficult.
Beaver Scouts are young people, usually aged between six and eight years old. They belong to the first and youngest section of the Scouting family. Boys and girls can join Beaver Scouts in the three months leading up to their sixth birthday.
Easily recognised by their distinctive turquoise sweatshirts, Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on visits and helping others.
Beavers meet  every Tuesday (Term Time) at the Scout Hut on Hearne Lane Hodnet,  from 18.15-19.15.

If you would like to have a go at some of the things that the Beavers get up to and  meet some of the people involved, then come along to the Hodnet fun day to be held at Hodnet recreation ground on Saturday 21st May.
