Scout Patrol Challenge – Base Ideas

The Scout Patrol Challenge is an intra-district event, where they go head to head through 9 bases and score points.

We’re calling on your Explorers to help design Taskmaster-style challenges for nine bases, each centered around the Scout Challenge Awards.

Aim: Create 9 task master-style bases, with the Scout challenge award themes

Activity Bases:

  • 20 minutes long
  • Equipment recorded
  • The task should be written as a challenge, not too much detail & encompass the essence of the challenge award theme.
  • They will be scored on: Leadership, Teamwork & Achieving the task

Base themes:

  1.  Adventure
  2.  World
  3.  Creative
  4.  Expedition
  5.  Outdoor
  6.  Personal
  7.  Skills
  8.  Team leader
  9.  Teamwork

 

 

 

Examples:
