Our Main Projects.

2013 brings two major projects to the fore for 20th Dublin (Dundrum) Scout Group, firstly with our transition day into Scouting Ireland's 'One Programme', and secondly with our continued fundraising activities for the extension and renovation of Beckettsfield Scout Activity Centre.

Project 1. Transition into the ONE Programme

​

​​​​​​​​​​​​Scouting Ireland has just completed a huge programme of renewal and
redevelopment over the past 5-6 years. This has taken the ideals, principles and traditions of Scouting and made them into a practical Scouting that is also appealing and exciting for the young people of today.​
 

Scouting Ireland have developed and designed brand new, age specific, publications that will appeal and be reactionary to different age ranges. They are focusing on Personal Development and a clear and progressive Adventure Skills structure – rather than a traditional ‘merit badge’ system.​
 

This process has given Scouting Ireland a unified Association backed by a ONE Programme from Beaver Scouts 6 years of age right through to Rover Scouts 20 years of age.

​

Project 2. Beckettsfield Fundraising.

​

The 20th Dublin (Dundrum) Scout Group has formed a Parents and Friends Committee, to try to ensure that fundraising events for Beckettsfield are planned expertly and run as smoothly as possible.

​

The Committee has drawn up a list of events and fundraising ideas and will work hard with the Group to bring these plans to fruition throughout 2013 and into the future.

​

The Committee is aiming to break ground on Phase II of the Beckettsfield renovations in the later half of 2013 having completed Phase I (click below) in March 2012.
