The scout group is located in Frimley Lodge Park, Frimley. It consists of two beaver colonies (Wind in the Willows and Robin Hood), two cub packs (Concorde and Columbia), scout troop (Miller Troop) and a new explorer unit (no fixed name - possibly Phoenix). The group moved into a brand new building 3 years ago out of an old wooden hut. The new building is located actualy within the lodge park giving huge camping grounds and play areas. The group is very active and there are many inter unit activities designed to foster links between them to encourage members to move through the sections. The group is by far the largest in the district with over 200 members.

Wind in the Willows
Meets every Saturday 10:30 till 12:00. Currently recruiting members

Robin Hood
Meets every thursday

Concorde
Founded in 1975 by Charlie Prickett (father of Steve Prickett who runs scout troop). Now run by several leaders there is a wide and varied programme and consists of over 30 cubs. Named after the concorde plane because it first flew on the same day as the first ever meeting. It was therefore felt a fitting name. A new venture for a new era (supersonic travel). Thankfully the pack has not since followed the history of the plane - pack not crashed in France!! The unit meets every Friday at 6:00 to 7:45. New members are always welcome. The leaders are a mix of those there for many years and new ones coming up from explorer units in local area.

Columbia
The unit meets every Thursday at 6:00 to 7:45. New members are always welcome.

Miller Troop
This troop is the result of a merger between the previous Miller troop and an old troop (now gone) named after a Colonel Warburton. This occured due to loss of leaders resulting in rapidly decreasing numbers. This was initiated by current main leader Steve Prickett. The current membership is at 40+ and increasing. The increasing numbers is leading to questions about restarting the old Warburton troop but due to a rigorous dictatorship regime by main leaders there are no suitable leaders to start and lead this possible troop. There is also discontent at the so-called summer camps. No different to normal camps at only 3-4 days unlike the stories about the old 1-2 week camps. Troop meets every Friday 8:00 till 10:00.
