Scouting, also known as the Scout Movement, is a worldwide youth movement employing the Scout method, a program of informal education with an emphasis on practical outdoor activities, including camping, woodcraft, aquatics, hiking, backpacking, and sports.
Scouts are do-ers and give-it-a-go-ers. We also get to hang out with our friends every week in our own building behind St Marks church in Saltney. We have fun, playing games, working in a team and taking on new challenges.
Every week scouting give almost half a million 4-25 year olds the skills they need for life. Here at 1st Saltney Saltney we support 50 young people and hope to open a squirrels in January increasing our numbers to 60
