Estevan Scouts has folded.

Allen Klassen, the contact scouter for Weyburn Scouts, said Estevan's organization didn't have enough people.

"They ran out of leaders and ran out of youth and so basically Estevan scouting has ceased," Klassen said.

But that doesn't mean people from the Estevan area that are interested won't be able to participate in scouts.

Klassen said they're inviting those from Estevan to join them in Weyburn. He'd also help out if people wanted to start up a program in Estevan.

"If they're willing to start up a new group, we can show them how and we can get them on the right track. We'd love to be of assistance and link up and do some camping with them and all sorts of stuff."

Klassen said they've lost a lot of members - both leaders and scouts - during the pandemic.
