The 4th East Grinstead Scout group was originally opened in June 1954 and closed in the mid 70s. Unfortunately, we have very limited documentation between these periods.
Luckily for the group today, a local gentleman, Peter Roberts reopened the group and the scout section in March 1981.
A few months later, the cubs section was opened in and had their first meeting in July 1981.
In May 1984, the group formally unveiled their beaver colony and held their first meeting. Below is a photo of one of the first investiture (if you look carefully you can see our current cubs section leader). Also, The news article, which provides more information.
