The Explorer Scout Section is for young people, 
usually aged between 14 and 18 years. 

Explorer Units are the fourth Section of the Scouting family, 
but run independently from Scout Groups.

Not all Units meet each week, because you will often be out and about 
at weekends or in the holidays doing activities. 
There will be times when you will be busy doing other things such as exams, 
and being an Explorer Scout will have to fit around these.

As an Explorer Scout, you will get the chance to work with other 
Explorer Scouts in the District, not just your Unit. By doing this, you will get the 
chance to do many more activities, not just the ones your Unit organises.

Blackwater Valley District Explorer Scout Units have their own website
