Q:「童子军」和「童军」有什么区别？ |
Q: What’s the difference between “童子军” and “童军”? |
| Boy Scout 在2008年之前称为「童子军」，但自2008年起，世界各地的华人童军总会联合将中文名称正式改为童军。中国并非世界童军组织的会员国，目前在中国境内仍然有许多机构以旧名称「童子军」为名作为商业牟利的工具。真正的童军是非营利机构。 | “Boy Scout” was translated as “童子军” before 2008. The new Chinese translation is “童军”. Some people still use the old term 童子军 in China. Since China is not a WOSM member, There is no NSO (National Scout Association, 童军总会) in China and they have no contact with other NSOs and the World Organization. All scouting organizations in China are local business operating for profit. |
Q: 童军就是玩户外游戏及参加营会吗？ |
Q: Boy Scout is about outdoors and camp, right? |
| 其实户外游戏及参加营会只是童军活动的一部分，大部分的时间孩子们是从活动中学习生活知识、团队精神及如何成为一个智仁勇三者兼备的好公民。 | Outdoors and camps are only part of Boy Scout activities. Young people in the Scouts learn social skills and team spirits, build character and become a good citizenship via indoor and outdoor activities. |

Q: What do scouts do? |

| 童军活动并不是Day Care或者课后班，我们也没有雇用保母来照顾孩子，所有活动及课程都靠家长们来帮忙完成。从担任团长 (Cubmaster) 、小队长(Den Leaders)，活动执行 (Adult in Charge, AIC)，或者团务委员 (Committee Members) 等，有的只要每个月两三个小时，有的每星期两三个小时，每个家庭可以按自己的能力来服务。 | Cub Scout is not a day care service or after school program.

You can choose the one that fits you. |
