Who Are Scouters (Volunteers)?
Who Are Scouters (Volunteers)?
All of our volunteers within Scouts Canada are called Scouters, no matter what their volunteer role encompasses. Scouters are men and women aged 14+. All Scouters, including our younger youth volunteers seeking volunteer hours, are required to undergo online training, a reference check, an interview, sign a code of conduct, and have a police reference check and vulnerable sector check all before they can begin to volunteer.
Scout and Older Motto: Be Prepared
Scout and Older Law: A Scout is helpful and trustworthy, kind and cheerful, considerate and clean, wise in the use of all resources.
Scout and Older Promise: On my honour; I promise that I will do my best; To do my duty to God and the King; To help other people at all times; and to carry out the spirit of the Scout Law. OR On my honour; I promise that I will do my best; To respect my country and my beliefs; To help other people at all times; and to carry out the spirit of the Scout Law.
Camping
Scouters help plan, organize and help execute camps for the younger youth and help support the older youth in planning, organizing and executing their own camps. Scouters have a chance to camp virtually and in-person with other Scouters and make long-lasting friendships and memories for themselves and their youth.
Fundraising
Scouters are encouraged to do their best to help with our fundraisers throughout the year. Ideas for other fundraising Ideas for further fundraisers and someone to organize them is always appreciated! This helps keep costs as low as possible and enable us to book special virtual meetings and other items with extra costs. In-person camp costs are in addition to previous funds and fees collected and your support in fundraising will help lesson these costs.
