How it Works
Program Navigator is designed with Unit Councils in mind. Whether you’re mapping out a full term or looking for a quick idea to fill a Section night, this tool provides resources to suit every need.
You can search activities based on:
- Location: Find activities perfect for the hall, outdoors, indoors, or on camp.
- Time Available: Filter by how much time you have.
- SIA or OAS Goals: Search by Special Interest Area inclusion or Outdoor Adventure Skills.
- Section: Tailored activities for every Section, with options to increase the challenge for older youth members.
Many activities also include a “Level Up” feature to add a more advanced twist for Venturers or Rovers, ensuring everyone is engaged and challenged.
Support for Your Program
To make planning easier, most activities come with:
- Videos demonstrating how to run the activity.
- Downloadable PDFs with detailed instructions.
- The Program Planner 2025, a comprehensive tool with calendars, tips, and checklists to help you design an engaging and inclusive term program. Download it here.
Whether you’re brainstorming for a term program or need a last-minute activity, Program Navigator is here to inspire creativity and simplify programming.
We wanted to make it even easier and more accessible for you to deliver a fun and appealing program.
