Exploring is a youth program chartered through Boy Scouts of America's Learning for Life organization.  The goal is to allow career education for young men and women between the ages of 14 and 20.  Exploring provides real life experience to help young people mature and to prepare them to become responsible and caring adults.

Post One members are trained in FEMA’s Community Emergency Response Team training.  Here they will learn fire suppression/utility control, light search and rescue, victim extrication, triage and emergency medical care.  After initial training they are invited to participate right along with their adult counterparts in Rowlett CERT.

Many of the Explorers are certified in First Aid, CPR/AED by the American Heart Association and the American Red Cross.  Other training includes Search and Rescue, Maps and Orienteering, Storm Watching, Aircraft Operations, Radio Communications, National Incident Management, Animals in Disaster, Bicycle Operation and Patrol, Canoe/Kayak operation, Climbing, Rappelling, as well as Police and Fire Operations.
