The Devonport Scout troop was first started in 1908 and on 14th October 1909, there was sufficient demand to be be able to start up a second troop. By 1912, there were five Scout Troops at Devonport, including a Troop of Girl Peace Scouts and a Sea Scout Troop !

Scouts are organised into Patrols and run the meetings themselves, which include activities such as pioneering, orienteering, map-reading, First Aid, campcraft, survival, backwoodsmanship, hiking & tramping, , conservation, acting & performance, public service and community endeavours. Of course, the primary activities for scouts like Camps, Jamborees, Hiking Trips etc take place on weekends and during the holidays.
