The scouts of the St. Petrus Warstein tribe belong to the largest Catholic scout association in Germany, the DPSG (Deutsche Pfadfinderschaft Sankt Georg). The tribe was founded on February 28, 1978.
It consists of around 170 members. The children and young people meet regularly in four age groups (Wölflinge, Jungpfadfinder, Pfadfinder, Rover) for group lessons in the Paulushaus.
The basement not only houses the large materials store with everything needed to run a camp, but also the group rooms for the weekly group sessions. At these meetings, we play, laugh, celebrate, do handicrafts and much more.
Over the course of the year, the St. Petrus Warstein tribe organizes many different joint activities, where contact between the younger and older members is particularly important to us.
These include St. George's Day, the annual sponsorship campaign to support a children's home in Halmeu (Romania) and the peace light campaign. Every year, the scouts collect the light on foot from Dortmund and distribute it at various locations in the city. The big highlight of the scout year is the 10-day summer camp. Up to 50 children and young people and their group leaders regularly take part.
The distinguishing mark of the DPSG is the uniform with the colored neckerchief corresponding to the level. The scouts wear this beige-colored shirt on various occasions, accompanied by a white banner. The banner shows a red cross and the lily, the symbol of the scout movement.
As you can see, there is always something new to discover and experience with the scouts. That's why the tribe's motto is: "We make adventure possible!"
The weekly group lessons are canceled during the school vacations.
