I under stand what a combined activity is. However, there still should be something on the scout calendar indicting that the activity that week is the combined activity and where they can go to get the details. One of your scouts may not have subscribed to the combined calendar so could think that there is no meeting.

Ownership for YM/YW Combined Activities would be the Bishops Youth Committee (BYC), which should also be maintaining the calendar.
