1st Greyabbey Cubs Fly High

Date: 30th May 2025 Author: Phoebe McDowell

After winning the Ulster Flying Club and Ards Airport colouring competition, 1st Greyabbey Cubs enjoyed an unforgettable evening at Ards Airport.

The Cubs had a fantastic time exploring the airport’s hangars, learning about the fire truck, and even sitting inside one of the planes! An incredible experience that brought their Scouting adventure to life. As a result, each Cub earned their Stage 1 badge, recognising their new skills and learning.

A big thank you to Ards Airport and the Ulster Flying Club for making this inspiring visit possible. It’s moments like these that show how Scouting opens doors to new adventures, skills, and lifelong memories.
