AS youngsters, it was a rite of passage for most of us to be a member of a group or club.
Playing a part for many were the longstanding institutions such as the Brownies and Scouts.
Here we take a peep back at some photo moments of Cubs, Scouts and Cadets across the region.
Were you a members of one of these childhood staples?
