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

“The Kid had a lurking devil in him ... It was a good-humored, jovial imp, or a cruel and blood-thirsty fiend, as circumstances prompted. He always laughed when killing, but fire seemed to dart from his eyes.”
—State of New Mexico, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“People with high ideals don’t necessarily make good politicians. If clean politics is so important, we should leave the job to scientists and the clergy.”
