The End of Our „Scout Odyssey”

Project Description

The project “The End of Our Scout Odyssey” is a response to the current need of the environment which for years has struggled with organizational and location problems that prevented it from fully focusing on educational work with scouts.

Currently, after years of changing the location several times, the scouts have finally received their permanent meeting place from the Strzelce Opolskie Community, rented free of charge for an indefinite period of time. During the project we would like to arrange this place in such a way that right from the entrance it would be clear that we are in the scouts’ lodge and not in some office or common room. We want this place to become our business card and for the residents to know that there are scouts in our city and where they can be found.

We also want the Scout’s lodge to be a place that stimulates creativity and at the same time is functional and safe. The final renovation and adaptation of the scouting room will be done by our troop members, parents and former scouts, who will feel that it is their place and at the same time will acquire many useful manual skills. Each troop will have its own box to store their treasures and souvenirs and other things important in the life of the troop. In addition, our activities will be directed to the people of the city, who in this way will be able to get to know scouting, which will allow us to grow in numbers and develop.
