How to Organize A Rover Circle
• Any institution or a group of responsible and
committed citizens, desirous of helping young adults
in their formation, writes or calls the Local Council
expressing their desire to sponsor a Rover Circle.
• The Local Council Scout Executive visits and confers

with the head of the institution or group of citizens,
explaining the functions and responsibilities of the
Sponsoring Institution of the Unit/Circle.
• As the institution agrees to adopt the Rover Scouting

program, the process of organization formally starts.
• An organizing committee, selected by the institution,

meets to plan the organization of the Circle.
• The organizing committee finalizes by electing or

appointing the Institutional Committee, composed of
an Institutional Representative and at least 2 or 3
members, the Institutional Head (IH) as Chairman.
• The Institutional Scouting Committee meets to appoint

a trained Rover Leader and 1 or 2 Assistants. If no
trained leaders are available, training can be arranged
with the Council Scout Executive
• After the training, the adult leaders will then recruit

young adults ages 16 to 24 to form the Rover Circle

Application for Unit Registration (AUR) to the Council
Office.

Committee prepares the Rover Circle Leader for
