Today I feel rather helpless and hapless... Just got word that the group in Varberg lost their house in a fire last night - 50 years of history up in smoke.
Of course we will all pitch in to help as much as we can, but the greatest challenge is to help people not to lose heart in all this, and to see the possibilities. The group has been struggling for a while, with finding leaders and finding funds - hopefully this won't break their backs, but make them stronger!
We feel for you!

Welcome to Falkenberg Scout Group!
In Sweden Cub Scouts are called Tracker Scouts and Discover Scouts and the age groups are: 8-9, 10-11 (12). The age group after that is called Adventure Scouts (12 - 15) and then Challenger Scouts (15 - 18) Then there are Rovers, and Scout volonteers. This page is the chronicals of the packs of Falkenberg Scout Group.
We are going to describe what happens at meetings, hikes and camps as best as possible and share links to resources and tips. To some extent I'm sure that some Scout politics will find its way in here as well as information about Swedish scouting and tips of activities to come and enjoy in Sweden.
Very welcome back!

How awful for the Group. I hope they had insurance and that they pay up rapidly.
It's always sad when an organisation's buildings / equipment gets broken / destroyed whether accidental or deliberate.
We use to have a minibus which got badly vandalised, to the point of it having to be scrapped. The support we got from the loacl people was great. We had offers of tempory transport and money for a new one (we decided not to get another though).
Kindness on that scale does restore your confidence!
