Scouting in Nova Scotia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scouting in Nova Scotia has a long history, from the 1900s to the present day, serving thousands of youth in programs that suit the environment in which they live.
Nova Scotia is served by the Nova Scotia Council of Scouts Canada. Among Nova Scotia's varied Scouting groups are Scouts (11-14), Cubs (8-10), Beavers (5-7) and Venturers (14-17).
Canada has several associations which trace their roots to the Baden-Powell Scouts in the United Kingdom. They form the Canadian Federation of Independent Scouting, which is a member of the World Federation of Independent Scouts. Members of the federation include BPSA - Nova Scotia.
