Scott Laidlaw

Scott joined the Scout Movement at the time that his children started at Cubs (his daughter is currently a Venturer). He joined Leopold as an Assistant Cub Scout Leader in 2004, completing his Cub Scout Wood Badge in 2006. Scott has attended two Cuboree’s in 2005 and again in 2008 where he went as a Pack Akela. During 2010 Scott became DLATS because his workload meant he could not commit to the weekly Cub meetings. Scott seems to be missing Cubs so much that he volunteered to help in the kitchen at the 2011 Cuboree. Scott is in the final stages of completing his Leader of Adults Woodbadge.
