MNC: Monday Night Cubs

Cubs · Mondays · 6:30–8:00 pm · Ages 9–11 · Den in Ballinteer, Dublin 16

Welcome to MNC

Monday Night Cubs is one of two Cub packs at 115th Ballinteer, with 25 members aged 9–11.

Cubs is where young people start to explore the wider world of scouting. Monday nights give members a longer session than Beavers to get into more ambitious activities: team challenges, camp skills, map reading, badge work and trips out. Moving on from Beavers or joining fresh, Cubs is where confidence really builds.

Monday Cubs term dates

Leaders

All our leaders are Garda vetted and Scouting Ireland trained. For any questions, speak to a leader at drop-off or collection, or see group contact.

What we get up to

A typical Monday evening includes a roll call, games, badge work and a team or outdoor activity. Over the year Cubs go on day trips, take part in sleepovers, learn camp cooking and knots, and take on challenges that build the skills they'll use in Scouts. The Group Camp brings all sections together.

Upcoming camp

Friday 13 – Sunday 15 November 2026: our next camp is Aurora Camp, a two-night stay away for the pack. Venue and final details to follow from your section leaders. See what to bring and the term dates for the rest of the year.

Uniform and what to bring

MNC Cubs wear the custom 115th MNC hoodie, available from the leader team, plus the 115th Ballinteer necker and woggle. See the uniform guide for more details, and ask about the uniform recycling scheme for second-hand items. Bring a water bottle every week. For camps and sleepovers, see what to bring to camp.
