1st Oshawa Rovers
What are Rovers?
Men and women 18 to 26 years of age.
Rovers are young adults, often serving as leaders, who are looking for adventurous challenge, social gatherings and career networking. The program is developed by the Rovers themselves based on personal and group interests.
Rovers help young adults develop their ability in interpersonal communication, life skills, outdoors expertise, problem solving, social issue awareness, and decision making.
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
