Welcome to the First International Scout Family

how many scout organizations are there in your country?

There are 2 main scout organizations in Poland (ZHP and ZHR)
and few smaller.

ZHP - Polish Scouting and Guiding Association - there are scouts and guides, who profess diffrent religions
ZHR - woodbadge has to be a catholic

Smaller organizations usually are connected with religion too.

And what about your countries?
