Organise and co-ordinate the 2001 Explorer Camporee, a bilingual gathering of four days in a fixed camp and respecting the traditional norms of Explorer camps.

This Camporee will be jointly organised by the A.E.B.P and the A.Q.A.B.

 

2- Objective

Assemble all the Explorers, Scouts, Woodsman and  Leaders of all associations principally, but not exclusively, of traditional scouting, with the goal to favour to increase the fraternal brotherhood spirit between Explorers and to promote authentic traditional scouting. The Camporee helps each participant to grow as an Explorer and as a member of a Patrol.
