Explorers

Welcome to the Explorer Scout section pages

Explorer Scouts are young people, usually aged between 14 and 18 years old. Fareham East have 4 Explorer Units serving the District:

  • Sea Dragons
  • Phoenix
  • Adurni
  • Watkins
Details of each Unit can be found via the Explorer Unit links on the left of this site. You can also check out the Explorers or Scout Activities website.

As an Explorer Scout, you will get the chance to work with other Explorer Scouts in the District, not just your Unit.

Contact our Assistant District Commissioner for Explorers.

Fareham Scouting Weekend - Press Release

In 2007 there was a significant amount of publicity around Scouting, as the association reached its centenary, with local, national and international events taking place throughout the year. For the last 3 years the organisation has continued to quietly grow, and locally in Fareham, Gosport and the Meon Valley the average growth has been approximately 15% per annum, reversing a previous downward trend over 10 years. This was helped last year, when Bear Grills, the adventurer and explorer, became Chief Scout, making Scouting “cool” again in the eyes of many young people.

Explorers Three Peaks Challenge

We have been asked if we would like to join Fareham West Explorers in a go at the Three Peaks Challenge.
This is open to Explorers only and involves climbing Ben Nevis, Snowdon and Scafell Pike in the shortest possible time.
No dates set yet, it's just an idea, although Fareham West Explorers are very keen. Interested Explorer Scouts will have to undertake a few training hikes - just to warm up ready for the challenge!
If you are interested please contact matt@digitalaction.co.uk ASAP.
