Rovers are the last youth section of Scouting for youth ages 18 to 26 years old. The motto of Rovers is "Service" and the Crew's service project is Camp Opemikon. Potential members of the Crew are asked to join by current members. After a trial period, if the Crew and the invited member, known as a squire, both agree, the new member is invested into the Crew. Each member of the Crew is expected to come to Camp for at least three weekends during the off-season, not including the annual work weekend.
