Our Sections

Our Sections

The Scouting family is made up of our six Sections: Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers and Network.

At the 63rd, we have three of these Sections:

Beavers, for our 6 to 8 year olds

Cubs, for our 8 to 11 year olds

Scouts, for our 11 to 14 year olds

After Scouts, many of our young people move up to Explorers and Network – you can find your local units on the Scouts website.

What about Squirrels?

Squirrels are the newest members of the Scouting family, and we know that there’s a huge demand from 4 to 6 year olds and their families to get involved. Whilst we’d love to set up a Squirrel Drey at the 63rd, we simply can’t do it without any Leaders to plan exciting activities for the Squirrels. However, if you think you’d make a great Squirrel Leader (or you know someone who would), take a look at our volunteering page, and then get in touch!
