Abstract
This paper explores the scouting association activities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The activities that are
undertaken in different cities and regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa at Elementary and Secondary
level, are of real worth to critical thinking. One such activity is the nightly camp fires arranged in the
camps. These camp fires are full of literary activities like display of Pashtu Poetry, songs, plays, and
other folklores. Data for the this study was collected from the records of the scouting activities in the
Headquarter at Hayatabad, Takkya camp Abbotabad, and with District scout organizers. The
collected data was analyzed through thematic design. Apart from it, internal and external criticism
was conducted from the historical point of view. The standard of the National, provincial, divisional
and District scouting in the country is deteriorating day by day. It was concluded from the study that
After 9/11 the national scouting activities are in dormant. The number of scouts in the events are
decreasing with the passage of time. Scouting has stuck just to Annual sports gala in Pakhtunkhwa
and activities in Takya camp Abbotabad in summer vacations. The DSOs in all districts are physical
education teachers. The capacity to organize events in the districts is a lament in the present setup.
The provincial headquarter of the scouting in Hayatabad, Peshawar is working as formal office and
no record has been preserved of the scouting activities in the province.
