  • Chipmunks Scurry!
    Feb 26 2025

    Scouts Canada is piloting a new “Early Years” section starting this September: Chipmunks!

    Podcast Topics

    Scouter Ken is joined by Heather Ferguson and Ruchi Manikthala from Scouts Canada to discuss the recently-announced Chipmunk Scouts, which is now the official name of the “Early Years” program offering that Scouts Canada will begin piloting this September.

    Building off of what The Scout Association did with Squirrel Scouts, Chipmunks will welcome youth 4-5 years old into an introductory Scouting program, involving parents and – hopefully! – driving more recruitment of both youth and adult volunteers.
