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

Famous quotes containing the words program and/or ideals:

    In the Corner Store, near the village center, hangs a large sign reading: ‘After 40 years of credit business, we have closed our book of Sorrow.’
    —For the State of Maine, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    The old ideals are dead as nails—nothing there. It seems to me there remains only this perfect union with a woman—sort of ultimate marriage—and there isn’t anything else.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
