Program and Ideals

The ZTS is one of the few Scout associations that is still influenced by the ideas of Ernest Thompson Seton and his Woodcraft movement.

The Scout emblem dates from the Yugoslav era and incorporates a Scout campfire and a Woodcraft tepee on three pine trees in the shape of Slovenia’s highest mountain Triglav, the Slovene national symbol.

ZTS is divided in five age sections:

  • Murni (Pre Cub Scouts) - younger than 7
  • Medvedki in Čebelice (Cub Scouts) - ages 7 to 11
  • Gozdovniki in Gozdovnice (Scouts) - ages 11 to 16
  • Popotniki in Popotnice (Venture Scouts) - ages 16 to 21
  • Grče - 21 and older

    War is pillage versus resistance and if illusions of magnitude could be transmuted into ideals of magnanimity, peace might be realized.
