The Pioneer Organization (Romanian: OrganizaĊ£ia Pionierilor) was a pioneer movement in Communist Romania, founded on April 30, 1949.
Most students joined the organization while in the second grade and remained pioneers throughout eighth grade, therefore, in practice, the normal age range extended from seven to fifteen, or nearly fifteen.
