ADULT VOLUNTEER RESOURCES
Cub Scouting is above all a family activity that survives on the work of our parents and those (mostly parents) who go above and beyond - our registered adult volunteers, otherwise known as Scouters! If you're interested in helping Cub Scouting flourish and grow in Hong Kong, please check out the following links.
