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:
“The present century has not dealt kindly with the farmer. His legends are all but obsolete, and his beliefs have been pared away by the professors at colleges of agriculture. Even the farm- bred bards who twang guitars before radio microphones prefer “I’m Headin’ for the Last Roundup” to “Turkey in the Straw” or “Father Put the Cows Away.””
—For the State of Kansas, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Institutional psychiatry is a continuation of the Inquisition. All that has really changed is the vocabulary and the social style. The vocabulary conforms to the intellectual expectations of our age: it is a pseudo-medical jargon that parodies the concepts of science. The social style conforms to the political expectations of our age: it is a pseudo-liberal social movement that parodies the ideals of freedom and rationality.”
—Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)
