Ah man... explorers. That was a wicked two years of my life. So there I am, 15 year olds being intiated in Scouts Canada. Somewhat late for someone to get into, and fit into the Scouts movement eh?
After awhile I started realizing how sweet the actual system was. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I will admit though, I was a bit of a black sheep... to be very honest, I didn't earn a single badge. Atleast until recently, I hadn't realized I had.
Apparantly just attending activities (Canadian Jamboree - PEI 2k1 (If I remember correctly)) merits you badges. So there I was going through my old stuff, finding this round, scruffy edged bland colored badge. I grinned.
Then I remembered paintball, winter camping in -40celcius weather, kayaking... the flood of things I learned. Teamwork especially.
I would suggest getting into this to any boy/girl who doesn't seem to know what to do with their time. Good ol' times.
