Wild van FOS Open Scouting
FOS Open Scouting is a youth movement that counts over 9.000 scouts & guides in Belgium. Divided over more than 50 groups, spreaded throughout Flanders and Brussels, these youngsters meet up every weekend to play the game of scouting. OPEN SCOUTING FOS Open Scouting is a pluralistic, non-confessional and non-political youth movement. We welcome everyone, regardless of race, origin, belief, conviction or gender. We feel strongly about tolerance, uniting different opinions in an atmosphere of mutual respect. Openness is our contribution to a multicultural society. SCOUTS & GUIDES Scouting is a well-tried working procedure and a pedagogically justified method to deal with young people. Youngsters meet each other in small groups, with responsibilities adjusted to their age. In scouting traditions live on, creating a magical and mysterious world of experience. But playing and adventure are given priority. INTERNATIONAL As a scout you feel at home in the world. You are part of a worldwide movement. During international camps you meet young people from all quarters sharing plenty of common values. You enjoy the hospitality in other countries, and occasionally you can be the host(ess). MODERN Although traditions are important, scouting is a contemporary movement. Young people are straightforward, and that's also what Open Scouting stands for. It's up to you. No lack of challenges: test your pluck and give rein to your grit and energy. AN ADDED VALUE IN A YOUNGSTER'S LIFE Scouting values you highly. Participation and joint responsibility are its essential cornerstones. Being a dynamic movement, FOS Open Scouting tries to operate as democratically as possible. We give you the opportunity to take up social engagements. You grow up with a critical eye, a social attitude and an ecology-conscious view on society. Scouting is all about teamwork: both large and small groups are very important.
