- The Scouts meet on
Tuesday
evenings from 6:00 to 7:00 pm at
the Wheatley Scout Hall.
- The Scout Promise:
On my honour, I promise that I
will do my best, To do my duty
to God and the Queen, To help
other people at all times, And to carry out the spirit
of the Scout Law.
- The Scout Law:
A Scout is helpful and trustworthy, Kind
and cheerful, Considerate and clean, And wise in the use
of all resources.
- The Scout Motto:
Be Prepared
- Scouting is for youth of typical
ages 11, 12, 13 and 14 with option to continue to 16th
birthday.
-
Scout activities emphasize personal
development (decision making, interaction with peers)
while living and playing outdoors - in harmony with
nature and the environment. Hiking, camping, exploring,
summer and winter sports and community service comprise
the principle activities of Scouts. Scouts earn
Achievement badges and Challenge Badges. These badges
allow Scouts to earn the Chief Scout Award, the highest
award in the program.
- Scouting promotes activities that
encourage youth to:
- develop self reliance;
- develop self discipline and the
skills of working cooperatively with others;
- cooperate in setting and
achieving small group and personal goals;
- practise leadership skills;
- camp, explore the outdoors, and
develop good conservation practices
