Boy Scout Squad "Black stork" Pančevo

The Boy Scout Squad "Black stork" Pančevo (Serbian: Одред извиђача „Црне роде” Панчево) is a local scouting organization based in Pančevo, Serbia. Founded on 23 January 2019 by Lejla Purkar, the detachment is named after the black stork, a protected and rare bird species occasionally seen in the Pančevo area. It operates as an association located at Ruđera Boškovića 33 in Pančevo. The squad provides scouting programs for children aged 6 to 19, as well as older members, focusing on outdoor activities, friendship, and practical skills. Members meet every Saturday at the hall of "Miroslav Mika Antić" Elementary School in Pančevo, with meetings lasting one hour and workshops two to three hours. The use of mobile phones and other technology is strictly prohibited except in rare necessary cases. The detachment organizes annual seven-day camps in Čurug on the Tisa river, in cooperation with the Subotica and Čiča Janko (Perlez) scout detachments, and a three-day bivouac at Ponjavica. It also participates in various competitions across Serbia, including the "Čočetovo noćno organizovano tumaranje" (ČNOT) in 2023 in Pionirski grad where they won third place, and the "Noćno orijentaciono takmičenje" (NOT) in Bela Crkva. In 2023, members attended the spring camp on Tara, the Scout Association of Serbia rally in Zaječar, and the World Scout Jamboree in South Korea. The squad also runs environmental and first-aid workshops, such as "Scouts for Pančevo: learn, share, preserve" and "Making a first aid kit". The website was developed as part of the "Eco site – eco garden" project co-financed by the City of Pančevo under the "Ecology" competition. The detachment maintains a memorial multi-event called "Aleksandar Aca Stanković" in memory of a former scout who died of leukemia at age 24; memorials have been held annually since 2019.
