Rovers at RoverTiki

RoverTiki is an annual competition run in the Gauteng region and organised by GRAC (the Gauteng Rover Advisory Council), where Rover Crews build a raft from drums, rope and poles using pioneering. A Crew or team will stay on the raft for 24 hours and complete challenges whilst being judges by Senior Scouts.

The name RoverTiki is a portmanteau of Rover and Kon-Tiki. The first RoverTiki competition took place at Arrowe Park, Benoni in 2022 and it is hoped that it will become a recurring annual event.
