Easter Camp 2025

Fódhla News, Group News

Hi All, we will once again be camping in Powerscourt this Easter, April 18th – 21st!

We will all meet at the den at 9AM on Friday before leaving for camp. We will have a luí isteach and take a roll. Please let one of the leaders know before you leave. On Monday, everyone will be dropped back to the den and can be collected from there. Those giving lifts on Monday can collect the scouts at 11AM from Powerscourt. We will also need help bringing gear/rubbish back.

Lifts are hugely appreciated for both days. Please let your scout know if you can provide lifts for either day and they can be organised by watch at the meeting this Thursday.

Camp will be €50 and all Scouts MUST have an activity consent form filled out. If you have not filled one out you can use our online form instead: https://forms.office.com/r/HtJSPhSyEr
