ABOUT THE GROUP
Rod straznih ognjev = RSO
The scout group “Strazni ognji” (Guarding Fires) is one of
the four scout groups in Kranj.
There are 600 scouts in Kranj and its surroundings, nearly 250
being from RSO. Our group is not only the largest one in Kranj
but also one of the biggest and most active in Slovenia. We have a long
tradition as we are going to celebrate our 45th anniversary next
year. We also won a lot of prizes on various competitions.
Well, everything was not so ideal. Being a quite big scout group
we became more and more organised and demanding in the last
years. It was required more and more from our patrol leaders,
group leaders, and from our venture scouts. We put all the stress
on commitment and work and at the same time devoted less
attention to having fun. We became unpaid professionals without
any motivation. Luckily, everything turned for the better
recently and there are great times ahead of us. We are still
unpaid professionals but at the same time we have a good time.
Motivation is not a problem any more.
Here are some basic information on RSO: We have 27 patrols which
are separated into the scout troop and the cub pack. We also have
a club named Sibice (the Matches) and a
club of older scouts.
Beside on Internet you can find us in a showcase on Maister
square in Kranj and in our quarters on 5, Stritar street, 4000
Kranj. Our office hours are on Mondays from 19.00 till 19.30.
