Welcome to the 120th Portmarnock scouts website! The site is part of a new online movement for Irish scouts and is constantly being updated and refreshed with new information! We hope you will find it interesting and fun and will check back regularly!

The Den!
There is great news about us acquiring a den! A building company has set aside 350,000 euro for the scouts/guides den. The very latest is a meeting will be held in early October 09 at which a new site for a scout facility will be approved....this will be built at the side of the woods near the playground at the PSLC area. Fingal have been very supportive of the the scout group want to continue to support the project to it end. So things are really really looking up this year!


The Camp!
Our scouts camp to Isle of Man 2009 was a huge success, and everyone had a really fantastic time. The weather was great which added to the enjoyment of the super interactive and adventurous activities. All of the 31 scouts of our group are really had a great time and made lots of good friends and super memories. Our plans for camp 2010 are now under way and the venue is to Austria, however we will finally decide at the next COH meeting. Check out further details under Peter's articles on what you need to do to organise a camp to Wiltz....or the Isle of Man!

The Fees!
The leaders have decided on a registration fee for 09/10 of €100 per scout - on a sliding scale if brothers and sisters are in other sections. National HQ gets €50 of the money and the rest goes towards our own unit funds, training, rents,equipment, and subsidising of events, we will probably see little change in the fees or arrangements in the future, except upward trend!.

Ventures!
Our venture Scout section is very active...altough we only have 6 members at present...they are preparing the the Gaisce, Presidents Award Silver and we wish them luck in their endeavours!
We are looking always looking for ideas for our venture section! the group is only formed last year and they would be interested in co-operating with some other groups to join with on activities etc.If you are interested please let us know via ScoutTalk! Four members went to Sweden/Denmark on the explorer belt during July and all four were successful....and...had a really great time.
