Latest news
The 1st Prague Scout group 🇨🇿 was proud to take part in this year's annual Jamboree on the Air/Jamboree on the Internet (JOTA-JOTI). Groups from all over the world on October 16-18 were reaching out to one another and showing the power and vitality of the global Scouting community. We connected with groups from Malaysia 🇲🇾, Australia 🇦🇺, Norway 🇳🇴, and the United Kingdom 🇬🇧, getting back in touch with some old friends and meeting a lot of new ones. Now our young people know what Air Scouts do and where is a great place for fish and chips in Rugby, England 🏴. Our Cubs also participated in the JOTA-JOTI Hike the Planet event, in which Scouts around the world took hikes and registered their kilometers in a bid to collectively circumnavigate the globe (about 40,000 kilometers). JOTI was the focus of the second-ever meeting of our new Gilwell Club, which is dedicated to a deeper understanding of what Scouting is all about.

The resourceful archivists at 1st Prague Scouts have uncovered dozens of additional pictures of the activities of this year's Beavers/Cubs Autumn Camp! Hiking, archery, tent building, cooking, pioneering -- where did we find the time??? Enjoy.
An intrepid group of our Cubs spent a crisp autumn Sunday exploring the wonders of the UNESCO-listed Průhonický park a zámek - Botanický ústav AV ČR, which is home to more than 1,800 species of trees. In all, we hiked just over 10 kilometers, including a difficult, but rewarding 20 minutes of walking in total silence. It was a great opportunity to reflect on nature, on what we mean when we say that a scout is a friend to nature, and what we can do to keep beautiful and peaceful places like this alive and thriving. We returned home tired, but surprisingly refreshed and invigorated. British Scouting Overseas #PreparedForLife #afriendtonature #pruhonicepark #pruhonickypark #CubsRule
🪢🔦 This week, the Beavers continued practicing their knots and pioneering skills, from building a rope bridge to learning new knots and when to use them to avoiding the rope "snake" in a game. The Beavers also got creative sewing poppy badges to sell for Remembrance Day. 🌺 We were especially impressed by how well everyone tackled such challenging activities in the near-dark conditions! Thankfully, from next week we'll be indoors, so no more using headlamps to thread a needle! 😂🪡 Well done, Beavers! 🦫👏
Our Cubs were out and about this week, working on their Cyclist Activity Badge. We practiced riding safely in a group, sharing Prague's multi-use paths, and precision riding on an obstacle course. We also learned more basics of bike maintenance and ways to prepare oneself for longer-distance riding. We stressed that riding a bike isn't just a fun thing to do on a sunny afternoon, but a great, healthy way of life. You probably noticed that a lot of our photos this week are pretty dark. Soon the clocks will change and darkness will force us back to indoor sessions. So it was extra special this week to breath the cool, fresh air and watch the sunset over our handlebars.

🌺Poppy Appeal 2026🌺 As in previous years, we will be selling poppies at our section meetings leading up to Remembrance Sunday (8th November), to support the work of the Royal British Legion. Over the years, 1st Prague has raised tens of thousands of crowns to help with their work in looking after ex-servicemen and women. https://www.britishlegion.org.uk/ 🌺Poppies will be at section meetings to buy from Monday 19th October at the Gilwell Centre. So please bring a few crowns to your child’s meetings and buy a poppy. Any amount will be welcome, the more you give the more we can support the charity. They can even wear their poppy on their uniform to show support. We of course will be at Olšany Commonwealth Cemetery on Sunday 8th November for the special Remembrance Sunday ceremony. 10.15 to 11.20 (see your emails or OSM for details). 🌺 #royalbritishlegion #scouts #skaut #praguescouts
