NI Challenge Scouts Badge Project

We welcomed the Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs and Leaders of 1st Markethill Scout Group to the Library for the NI Challenge Scouts Badge Project.

They are the first Scouts NI group to take part in the project, sponsored by Northern Ireland Museums Council.

The Very Revd Shane Forster (Keeper of the Library) told the group that he had been a member of the scout movement too as a young boy.
