Where can I find scouts to attend for this summer?

Question

Hi all,

I am looking for some scouts to attend over this summer. May you recommend any of them (in Brussels or around the city, <100km from downtown)?

With my special thanks,
Anna

If you mean Baden Powell Scouts, well Belgian Scouts and Guides do their annual camps in July/August and then the meetings cease and recommence mid September, usually 2 Sundays (sometimes Saturdays) per month.

You can normally only join Scouts/Guides in September of each year.

Which language? French, Dutch or English?
What age?

It's very unlikely that you will find a troup that will let you join just for the annual summer camp. You'd have to join up in September for the year really.

They will occasionally take visiting (as in studying in Belgium) leaders along as camp attendants.

Places can be limited and demand is high, but most kids get in to the closest unit to home.

Hello Anna, there are plenty of summer stages that you could join depending on your age and commence and language skills check out your local sports centres and communes to see what's on offer. The British scouts have a big waiting list I'm not clear about the Belgian ones but they ask for regular commitment not just dropping over the summer as others have said

You absolutely must attend all year in Belgian Scouts.
