Embark on a Scouting Quest to harness
the Forces of Nature and defeat the dragon!
Unlock the Forces of Nature
The dreaded Dragon has woken from its 100-year slumber
and is wreaking havoc in all the land. Only the Cosmo Crest
can lull the Dragon back to sleep! Can you find the Cosmo Crest
by Week 4?
The Quest
Over four weeks (non-chronological activities), youth must find the Cosmo Crest by navigating a map of
the land—with fun challenges along the way!
The Dragon Trail Quest will bring Sections on a five-week voyage, traversing the mystical lands of a
fantastical world to face challenges as a team, discover their personal strengths and find a way to lull the
Dragon back to sleep, saving the land.
In Week 5, Sections can look forward to celebrating the Dragon’s defeat with a hosted (or planned) event
of their choosing.
Forces of Nature
To face each week’s challenge, youth must unlock the power of one of the Forces of Nature to help them
overcome the task at hand: Wind (Problem-Solving), Fire (Agility), Water (Resourcefulness), Earth (Strategy).

Remember
• All activities can be done either at home with parents, online or in-person, depending on your local
pandemic restrictions.
• As with all Scouts Canada activities, we believe safety comes first. Before embarking on your weekly
challenges, plan a youth-led or Scouter-guided safety moment and always explain the safe conduct of
the activity and any tools used. Throughout each activity, we have provided sample safety tips to start
the conversation. Find our Toolbox Talk and Safety Cheat Sheet resources (p. 26–27 in the Guide).
• The story for each challenge is ‘the inspiration’ for that week; youth will decide how they want to
approach each activity and Scouters will facilitate and support their youth-led ideas.

Scouter’s Tip
• Break this up into a couple of parts rather than doing • Pair up groups that chose the same adventure and
everything all at once. have them do it together, or have all groups do their
chosen adventure separately.
• Working in small teams (versus the full Section) will
allow more voices to be heard. • During the different weeks, have everyone meet at the

Safety Tips
• Sitting still for a long time can be hard—take some breaks to play some moving
games or have a dance break.
• Let everyone share their voice for planning. This may be challenging for some youth,
so do not force anyone to speak, but give them the space to do so if they wish.

Youth Led looks different for each of the Sections.
For Beavers, give them the option for which activity they would like to do to fulfil the challenge from the list
supplied, each week.
For Cubs, ask if they would like to use the activities or if they have another that could work.
For Scouts, offer the suggestions of activities and if they have other suggestions, take those into account as well.
For Venturers and Rovers, offer the suggestions but help them brainstorm other options.
How will I be able to do the usual things that we do in the Fall?
We understand that the fall season is a busy time. The Dragon Trail Quest has been developed with flexibility;

How to make the Dragon Trail Quest challenges easier or harder?
You all know your youth the best. These activities are picked so that they are doable by most of your Sections.
If they are too hard or too easy, each activity is linked to the Activity Finder with ‘Keep it Simple’ and ‘Take it
Further’ options, helping you adapt the activity for your Section’s needs. You can also visit our ‘Taking it Further’
guide on pg. 18–19!

Fall Recruitment 2022
DISCOVER YOUR THING IN SCOUTS!
It’s the start of a new year of Scouts.
Which means the time to let kids be kids
in the great outdoors is here!
Nothing compares to the feeling of inventing roasted
campfire donuts, toasting marshmallows, building a rock
bridge, or sharing campfire stories under a ceiling of stars.
As of August 15, 2022, Scouting youth can save their spot
and renew their membership for the 2023 year; new and
lapsed members can join the fun with registration opening
to the public on September 1, 2022.
Scouts offers youth a world where they can safely play,
make friends and develop character and confidence—all
while having fun and discovering what’s best in themselves.
Find helpful tools like messaging, creative videos, photos
and more on our Trello Board to support your Group’s local
recruitment efforts.
