Ten years ago the total youth membership of the Scout Group was about 65.
Today it is more than double that, still increasing and we have a waiting list.
The two main reasons that we can not reduce our waiting list are:
1) we do not have enough Adult Support on meeting nights; leaders and parent helpers.
2) The Scout hall is not
physically large enough to support any more young people in that section on that night. If we had more adult support we could split sections and meet on a different night or time - but that depends on 1) above

Notes:
Of those members on the waiting list who are too young to join many are two, three or four years old.
We have young people who wish to join Cubs and Scouts who have been on our waiting list for more than 2 years. These young people have been offered the chance to join another Scout Scout Group but have declined.
