When do we meet? What are Explorer Scouts? Explorer Scouts are the last of the sections that make up the membership of the Group. Both male and female members make up the “Explorers”, the age range for an Explorer Scout is between 14 and 18. What do we do? The Explorers programme is a mixture of adventure and activities that the members agree to undertake. Leaders and experts are on hand to help and assist where in programmes. More adventurous activities feature highly, putting the training and experience gained from Scouts into practice. Teamwork and self reliance lead to expeditions and weekends away, visiting places. Taking part in outdoor activities, or working on special projects are part of the programme Explorer Scouts measure their achievements by the Queens Scout Award. There is also a reliance on the Duke of Edinburgh’s award scheme What do we wear ? Explorer Scouts wear a uniform like all other sections for formal meetings and occasions. A mushroom coloured shirt with the Group Neckerchief, Explorer Scouts are encouraged to wear uniform blue cargo trousers or skirt. Where the particular activity demands, clothing suited to the task is worn with particular attention being given safety, ensuring that members are suitably equipped. A Group “T Shirt” is available for activities. |
