>>1013770Considering joining the rover scouts in Ireland, I was never a scout, but everyone in the generation passed was. Dad didn't feel like the scouts really prepared you for the outdoors anymore and taught me the basics myself then sent me off to learn alone.
I'd like to join to get an insight into the organisation though, even if it's not what it used to be in dad and grandads days it's still a good organisation that gives young people something to do, plus joining the rovers, whilst obviously not a full view of the entire system, would at least give me some insight should I choose to volunteer as an adult.
