We received our charter in 1972. The 137th Ottawa Scouts is part of Scouts Canada, Canada’s leading youth organization, offering fun and exciting outdoor adventure for youth (boys & girls) ages 5-26 in communities across Canada. We have over 60 youth in our Group (Beavers, Cubs, Scouts & Venturers) and 24 Adult volunteers, complete with PRCs and a variety of training and skills as well as years of experience.
“With every new member, with every camp and every community service project, Scouts Canada makes one simple promise to Canadian youth, parents and society:
Scouts have fun adventures discovering new things and experiences they wouldn’t discover elsewhere. Along the way they develop into capable, confident and well-rounded individuals, better prepared for success in the world. Scouts is the start of something great. It starts with Scouts.”
We have some fun upcoming All Sections/Group Events, so mark your calendars for these upcoming events:
FUNDRAISER - All Year, once a month. Fundscrip (www.fundscrip.com) is a fundraising program that asks you to pay for your everyday purchases with gift cards bought through the FundScrip program. Invitation code is V9A3C9. This means that just by paying for your groceries and gas with gift cards you can easily generate $30 every month - that's $360 a year!
It doesn't cost you anything extra
You don't have to change where you shop of what you buy
Your everyday purchases add up to make a difference very quickly
The Scouter’s section is devoted to providing constant support to the 25,000 volunteers who deliver Scouts Canada programs across Canada. Our progress, success and growth, both individually and as a Movement, is dependent upon having access to the tools and training we need to get the job done. You’ll find those tools here - helpful resources that equip us to deliver on the Scouting brand promise – It Starts with Scouts.
Voyageur Council serves over 3,500 youth in 100 Groups throughout Eastern Ontario and the Outaouais. Our Groups are supported by a team of over 1,200 dedicated volunteers who bring our program to life. The Council generally covers the territory from Petawawa to Kingston to the Quebec border, and includes communities in and around Gatineau, Quebec.
