Fionn Ó Conchuir, Dara Tansey, Jack Breen, Deirbhile Gavaghan, Emma Seckington and Fennell Wolohan, recipients of the Sea Scout Chief Scout Award, with their leaders from Arklow Sea Scout
Members of Arklow Sea Scouts and their leaders came together in celebration of six young people who completed the Chief Scout Awards Scheme.
Fionn Ó Conchuir, Dara Tansey, Jack Breen, Deirbhile Gavaghan, Emma Seckington and Fennell Wolohan each undertook a series of activities and acquired skills over a certain time-scale to achieved this prestigious Scouting accolade.
One of these was a 25km hike across part of the Wicklow Way, rounded off with an overnight camp by the fire at Lakeshore, Lough Dan.
These well-grounded young people have spent much of their childhood in Scouting and will continue their journey into the sea Scouts Ventures and then Rovers with the option to eventually become a Scouter.
Arklow Sea Scouts extend thanks to all the adult Scouters who volunteer every week who make such activities possible for the young members.
Anyone interested in becoming a member is invited to drop into Arklow Sea Scout Centre, Dock Road, Lower Tinahask for information.
