Groupe Scout de la Croisée

The Croisée Scout Group is a secular association founded in 1973, located in Cugy, in the hills above Lausanne. It brings together approximately 150 members from all walks of life. The group welcomes young people aged 7 to 25. Supervision is provided by volunteer leaders aged 18 to 25. The group offers different age groups with tailored activities. The first branch, for 7-11 year olds, focuses on games and nature exploration, including a one-week camp. The second branch, for 11-15 year olds, emphasizes independence and responsibility and offers expeditions, culminating in a two-week camp. The third branch, for 16-18 year olds, offers more freedom in choosing projects, including a camp abroad. The fourth branch, for 18-25 year olds, participates in recreational activities and supports the active leaders. The group organizes activities on Saturday afternoons. It also has a scout chalet in Cugy, managed by the FILAC foundation, which is available to members and can be rented. The group regularly publishes an internal newsletter called La Bouêlée.
