About Us
About us
We are the 3rd Cumbernauld Brownies and we meet on a Wednesday night in the Kildrum area of Cumbernauld. Cumbernauld is a new town which lies at the centre of Scotland and is about 15 miles from Glasgow. Its name comes from the Gaelic Cumar-nan-Alt, 'the meeting of the waters'. Cumbernauld is twinned with the town of Bron, France.

Brownies
We currently have 24 Brownies in our Pack. Our Brownies come from all parts of Cumbernauld, not just the Kildrum area. The Brownies have groups known as sixes.

Guiders
We have 3 Guiders who look after us and help us at Brownies. They are 'Brown Owl', who is in charge of our Brownie pack, 'Snowy Owl', who is an assistant Guider and 'Tawny Owl', who is a new Guider. |

Young Leaders
We also have 2 Young Leaders who help the Guiders. They are known as 'Robin' and 'Bluebird'. They started to help at our Brownie Pack when they were Pack Leaders and have stayed ever since! They are currently working on the Look Wider programme. |
Pack Leaders
Sometimes we have Pack Leaders at Brownies. They are Guides who come along each week to help out. We don't have any Pack Leaders at the moment.

Parents
Last but by no means least! Our parents help the Brownie Pack a lot - they all volunteer to help the Pack in one way or another - whether that is by making the tea/coffee at our special events, helping with transport, taking photographs, baking yummy cakes, or helping at Brownies one night if one of the Guiders is ill. The list is endless and we are very grateful to all the help that the parents give us. |
