The Vendelso Scoutgroup belongs to the Sodertorn Scoutdistrict within the Svenska Scoutforbundet (SSF) which is one of the five scoutorganisations in Sweden. These five scoutorganisations have formed a cooperation group named Svenska Scoutunionen (SSR) in order to, among other things, take care of the international scoutrelations within WOSM and WAGGS.

The Vendelso Scoutgroup was established in the year 1959 and have for the time being about 300 members in a total of nine scouttroops ranging from the miniorscouts at 8, to the roverscouts at 18 years plus.

The Vendelso scouts wears a blue scoutshirt and a brown neckerchief with orange edging which you can see here.

Our Groups Scoutyell is often heard in the deep forests around Vendelso.

• Our youngest scouts are the Miniorscouts, age 8-10 years
• Next comes the Juniorscouts, age 10-12 years
• Our Patrolscouts, age 12-15 years
• The Venturescouts in Sweden are called Seniorscouts, age 15-18 years
• GoldPigs is the name of our Roverscoutgroup, age 18 years plus

In addition to these, we also have a very special tenth "troop" called the "Skvadern". It consists only of adults interested in learning about scouting. The activities in Skvadern is a mix of all the things the young scouts do in the more normal troops. So by using the motto "Learning by doing" the Skvadern is used to spread info about scouting. It is a PR-activity which has given us several new scouters.
