Objective:
The Rover program
emphasizes service while encouraging young adults (aged 18 to 26) to
experience the best of the outdoors, to develop a sense of self-reliance and
teamwork, to explore and challenge to do things you wouldn't normally do. It
helps them explore vocational opportunities and allows them to participate in
a variety of social, spiritual and cultural activities. They challenge
themselves by taking part in physical and outdoor activities. It also helps
them get an awareness of the needs of the community and the environment.
These skills will prepare them for the adventurous Rover program.
 See Program
History for additional information. Additional Program activities see 1st Whitby Venturer
Scout Program
All new Rovers are called Squires once invested and are
required to establish a personal quest. Once the quest is completed, the
Rover can then be knighted. At 1st Whitby, the knighting can only be done by
a knight therefore the crew had to call in the help of the 57th Windsor Crew
to conduct the ceremony. This particular ceremony took place on a gazebo in
London, Ontario. (Yes, the sword is genuine and an important artifact of the
crew.)
To help you develop an idea of your quest,
take time to read the following: Quest of
Truth.

the Web
With Round Tables on the
decrease, it is getting harder to keep in touch with other Rovers. Thanks to
technology, it is now possible to keep in touch without actually gathering
around a roundtable.
Various websites have been
created to keep Rovers informed. This is your chance to check out some of the
websites from across Canada. Let us know if you are aware of other websites
out there. So check out these sites and start meeting Rovers from across
Canada.
