Outside User Groups
Staying true to our open-door policy, Trinity U.C. offers many outside groups in our local community the chance to meet in our building for various purposes - whether it’s for club meetings or recreational activities.
Second Listowel Scouts
Second Listowel Scouts is a division of Scouts Canada. All youth ages 5-14 years old are welcome to join our weekly group meetings of Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. Both youth and volunteers can register through Scouts Canada.
How it began
Second Listowel Scouts group was established in 1964 when Trinity became our sponsor and home. Scouter George Gracey was the original Scouts Canada charter who joined our group in 1965 as one of the first Cub Scout leaders. He was our liaison between Trinity and the group from 1965 - 2021.
Meetings
All sections of our group meet every Tuesday between 7:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. from January - December.

Meditation Group
Meditation is a form of focussed awareness. It is useful for people of all ages to enhance health, manage stress, improve sleep, increase mental clarity, and develop inner peace. In these weekly sessions, we explore breathing techniques, relaxation, guided imagery, and mindful meditation. It’s open to experienced meditators or newcomers!
Currently, meditation sessions are being conducted via Zoom from 11:00 a.m. - 12:15 p.m; in-person sessions are to resume in 2022.
If you’re interested in attending via Zoom on Thursdays please contact Susan James.
