6 th Richmond Hill Scout Group

6th Richmond Hill Scout Group was established in 1996 with a mission to contribute to the education of youth through Scouting principles. The Cub Pack, ages 8-10, upholds the Wolf Cub Promise and Law. The group's yellow and white scarf symbolizes its Catholic roots. The Cub Section is structured into two Packs, each consisting of four sub-groups called Sixes. Meetings are held weekly on Thursday nights during the Scouting year at Sir John A. Macdonald Public School. Parents are expected to ensure timely drop-off and pick-up, maintain communication with Scouters, and adhere to uniform and meeting protocols. Additionally, special events and celebrations are planned throughout the 20th-anniversary year, including a Thanksgiving Mass, contests, a yearbook, group dinner, and camp. Join us for a fulfilling Scouting experience at 6th Richmond Hill Scout Group's Cub Pack!
