| Short description: | Recruitment campaigns and activities have always been the top priority of our river scout unit. After successfully training 10 members of our unit how to work, communicate and lead children we are ready to recruit new members. Our goal is to face one of the greatest problems not just in our river scout unit but also in the Scout Association of Macedonia which is the lack of cub scouts (age 7 to 11). |

| Short description: |
In order to revive river scouting in Macedonia we plan to organize a 4 day scout camp that would be located by a river. In the period of the 4 days our idea is to train 30 members (ages- 15 to 23) from our river scout unit in the techniques and skills of rafting so that they can restart the activities on the rivers. After this kind of training and activities we should rapidly see a rise in the enthusiasm, involvement and moral among the members of our unit. |

| Short description: | In previous period, number of river scout and sea scout units were members of Association of Scouts of Montenegro (SICG). Most of these units were existing in Kotor, Bar, Budva, Niksic, Tivat and Podgorica. Each of these scout units were having 60 – 100 scouts. Their activities were implemented on sea, as well as rivers and lakes. As activity of the organization was reduced, these scout units stop their functioning, and currently are not active. Now, with SICG becoming independent member of WOSM, interest for renewal of activities of these groups is raising again. |

| Short description: | Bringing smiles is our motto for this project. We want to bring smiles to the faces of the children that need the most, more particular to the children that are not as privileged as every other child. Our idea is to reach out to these children, as potential new scouts that will enable us to grow and them to feel happy and included. We hope that this small step will show big message to the local community and it will be followed by many other people which will help these children became healthy, strong and responsible young men. |

| Short description: | First priority of our scout unit is growth and the initial thought that we have is recruitment of new leaders. Only new leaders can make the organic growth that we are aiming for. Therefore our scout unit is in need of new leaders which will help us reach out to as many children as we can. We are aware about the interest the children have, but from the other side we are not able to provide them scouting, because we are in lack of leaders. |
