Men and women 18 to 26 years of age.

The outdoors is an essential part of the Rover program. Rovers often participate in adventurous activities like mountain climbing, white water rafting, or para-sailing.

Rovers also help their local communities by running service activities such as food drives, park clean-ups, and tree plantings.

Rovers meet in a group called a crew. Rovers develop and manage their own program under the mentorship of a respected advisor. Rovers adhere to a promise and motto.

The Rover 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 Rover Motto:
Service

Scouting Spells Excitement
Scouting continues to be an invaluable experience, providing me with incredible opportunities, both as a leader and participant. Scouting challenges me both intellectually and physically.

Thanks to Scouting, I have experienced flying, rock-climbing, Scout exchange programs and white-water wilderness canoe trips, just to name a few highlights. I had an incredible experience at CJ97 in Thunder Bay. From my first concert on the beach, to learning how to kayak, the memories will last a lifetime!

I have grown and become a better person through Scouting. My leadership skills have been enhanced by working with adults, youths my own age, as well as younger members. I had the opportunity to envision, develop and implement a youth-run camp linking district Scouts and Venturers. The camp success created an overwhelming feeling of accomplishment; and Venturer membership doubled. I have developed confidence, as well as interpersonal, communication, teamwork, public speaking, time management and organizational skills that will be invaluable in the future.

Scouting fosters many strong friendships. These friendships are one of the greatest gifts I have received from Scouting.

The wide range of opportunities that Scouting offers continues to amaze me. At CJ01 in PEI, I had the unique experience of volunteering as a lifeguard. I am proud to be able to give back to Scouting; it has changed my life forever!

Scouting Improves All Our Lives
For the past six years, Scouting has played an important role in my life.

As a youth member, I have planned and participated in camping trips and special events. I planted trees that will improve the environment for years to come. Committed, knowledgeable adults who volunteer their time to Scouting have made a positive difference in my life.

Scouting has given me opportunities to develop organizational, time management and problem-solving skills, and enhanced my ability to communicate effectively with people of all ages and backgrounds.

Throughout my Scouting experiences, I have developed strong friendships with people of all ages. These relationships are based on fun times, difficulties overcome, and shared experiences. I hope that they will endure throughout my life.

Scouting Builds Confidence in Youth
Scouting is fun. It has provided me with enjoyment. I have also become more aware of nature and the peace it has to offer.
Scouting has increased my confidence immensely. I believe I have developed into a better person and citizen because of Scouting. As I grow older and become more aware of Scouting principles, I see the value of this program for myself and others. I believe that these goals and principles offer a desirable direction for me to lead my life.

Scouting Helps Youth Develop Socially 
I have been a member of the 2nd St. Stephen Venturer Company (New Brunswick) since 1992, and I honestly feel that in these past five years I have grown stronger, not only physically, but also mentally and socially. During this time I have learned how to organize and run a meeting; I have successfully held Scouting executive positions of vice-president, secretary and treasurer. Furthermore, having participated in several outdoor camping trips and competitions, I have acquired various significant skills, such as knot tying, first aid, orienteering, camp organization, and others.

The most important part of Scouting for me has been the social interaction. I have learned to work as a member of a team, and to trust and depend on others when emergencies arrive. I have also learned that the most important part of competition is having fun, not constantly striving to be the best.

The part of Scouting that I will never let go of and can never lose is stored in my heart. It consists of the friends I have made and all of the memories which will never fade.
