Waking up to the sound of monkeys – that is Fota!
For our Fota Scout camp from Friday 26th to Sunday 28th September:
- Cub and Scout sections can camp on Friday and Saturday night
- Beaver’s who have done overnights before, can camp on Saturday night
- Day trips on the Saturday is an option for Beavers and Cubs
To confirm your child’s place a booking must be made on the payments system via Payzone. Price covers transport, food, activities and site fees. There’s a day-only option for beavers/cubs who don’t want to spend the night(s).
If not done so already: Parents must also have completed the activities consent form and, if necessary, the ‘Managing medications‘ form.
If you have any questions speak with your leader/s during the week.
Please note: we have children with severe nut allergies in the group. Please do not provide your child(ren) with any snacks containing nuts!
