Scouts 'a credit to Kilcullen'

The Kilcullen Scouts recently competed the South Kildare Scouting Shield competition in Forest Farm, Athy. 'Badger' Patrol represented Kilcullen in the Senior Competition, with 'Hawk' Patrol competing in the Novice Section.

In the Senior Competition, despite averaging almost three years younger than the more experienced patrols, the Badger Patrol put in an exceptional performance and were very unlucky not to at least come in as runners-up.



The Hawk Patrol also excelled and were awarded the Novice trophy for Campcraft and for displaying the best "Spirit of Scouting".



Congratulations to both patrols and their leaders who have worked very hard throughout the Scouting year in preparation for this event and are a credit to Kilcullen.
