Through our Plan-Do-Review method, Rover Scouts are empowered to learn by doing. With Scouts Canada’s Youth-led programming, Rovers put leadership and teamwork into play by planning their activities with the guidance of a mentor. The great Scouting adventure allows them to explore new things, share ideas, learn new skills and create new paths.
Rover Scouts is filled with a little bit of everything and plenty of opportunities for youth to personally develop in areas including like social, physical, intellectual, character, emotional and spiritual. Along the way they meet like-minded individuals, work toward personal goals and develop self-confidence.
As Canada’s largest youth organization, Scouts Canada places great importance on creating a fun and safe environment for our members. By embedding safety in everything we do, we create a culture of safety supported by comprehensive policies, resources and guidelines for all Scouting activities.
