Scout Caving : Getting Involved

Abstract

Ask just about any group of cavers, and you'll find that a fairly significant number were introduced to Caving through the Scouting movement. What many people don't realise is that you don't need to be a full time Scout Leader to help out. This session looks at how introducing our young people to Caving can benefit the sport as a whole and how you can get involved with full flexibility.
