Clonmel Scout group has a long history within the area, providing a non-formal form of education for the youth of the area.

Embracing nature and outdoors, along with teamwork and great friendships, scouting in Clonmel is as strong as it ever has been, with the group gaining a strong venture and rover scout group.

This year the group saw two of their rovers travel overseas to represent Ireland at the World Jamboree in South Korea and Kandersteg, Switzerland.

There are fantastic scouters in the group who volunteer their time and have committed to share life skills, help create lifelong memories, encourage future leaders and hopefully give scouts a chance to embrace the great outdoors.
