Our Venturers who are on their way to the 25th World Scout Jamboree have learnt this week that some countries call their scarves 'neckers'.

Scouts all over the world wear scarves or neckers, so they remind everyone that they're part of one big Scout family.

Today is World Scout Day!

Celebrate by wearing your scarf and snap some shots of you out in the community! Whatever you do let's make sure we let everyone know what it means to !

Four of our Venturers are off on a journey of a lifetime! They will join the rest of the Australian Contingent to represent Australia at the 25th World Scout Jamboree in South Korea 🇰🇷

They will be joining approximately 50,000 other youth members from over 150 countries to share in culture, experiences and friendship.

Thank you to everyone in our community who has helped them achieve their dream!
