Squirrels Invested into Paisley Abbey Scouts

Date: 28th Jun 2024 Author: Richard Murray
This week we were so excited to be investing the new Squirrels into our Drey formally before we finish up for the summer break.
Investiture is a special time where the Squirrels made their Scout Promise, and becomes a member of both the group, and the worldwide Scout family.
We want to warmly welcome the Squirrels into both Paisley Abbey Squirrels and the worldwide Scout family.
They got their Membership Award. This is a purple badge with a picture of the fleur-de-lis – an international symbol that’s worn by Scouts all over the world and their neckie. Which they can proudly wear, to show which Scout Group they are part of.
To mark the occasion had a Squirrel ‘Nut Hunt’ at the end of the session where it the Squirrels were awarded with their new Squirrel Jumpers, bag and water bottle ready to take on the next adventure.
