Troop 30 has established an Adult Scouter Group, a
Rover Crew. This is an adult fraternal Scouting organization whose motto is
simply " Service". As an organization, we are dedicated to
support community projects and Troop 30's programs and equipment. Yet as a
fraternal group of Scouters, we enjoy the activity of the " Open Air"
and the fun of camping. Our Crew believes that we can model the Patrol
Method and Leadership Skills we expect our Boy Scout Group and Senior Scout
Group to learn.
Rover Scouting is a branch of traditional scouting
mostly in other parts of the world. It has not existed in the United
States for many years. As such, our crew has affiliated with the
Baden-Powell Scouts based in England. This International association
follows the original Scout Oath and Law as well as the original uniform and
advancement
program as developed by the founder of Scouting Lord Baden-Powell. We in no way
seek to replace the BSA program but rather choose to support it and Troop
30. To this end, we maintain dual registration with both associations for
the singular goal of the betterment of the Program. Our association is
affiliated with the World Federation of Independent Scouts.
We are also active Rover Scouts seeking further
training and follow the Rover advancement program. Our activities include
both supportive Scouting participation in the Troop 30 Scout Group program as
well as Rover outings and Social events. Our Rover group holds monthly Crew
meetings.
