VVV ("Triple V")
Triple V recruits mostly from the Eastern Half of the District (Berkhamsted, Northchurch and Potten End).

Most of our members have previous Scout or Guide experience - although that's not necessary and anyone who wants to join in is very welcome.

As far as possible we meet outdoors during Autumn, Spring and Summer (typically in Ashridge, at Halls Field or Phasels Wood) and in winter use a variety of venues, including Berkhamsted and Potten End Scout Huts.

We offer a Summer Camp for at least one week a year. There are also opportunities for weekend camps (including competitions and award based training).

We also hold joint meetings with other Explorer Units and compete against them on a friendly basis for various District Trophies.

We encourage all of our members to help organise our programme of events - and keep in touch online through our Facebook Group.
