THIS WEEK 2026-06-10 Night Abseiling at Whipstick Gully with Viewbank Venturers

UPDATE 202-06-10 4:00pm Due to several issues, we no longer have enough Leaders (qualified belayers) to run the abseiling. With the rain & dark the risk profile has gone too high.

We are rolling over to the backup program of crate stacking at the hall 7:30pm to 9:30pm.

Scouts are always striving to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and that includes leaving minimal trace when exploring the outdoors.

This World Environment Day, we're focusing on a critical challenge: ridding the planet of plastic pollution. It’s key to protecting our oceans, repairing ecosystems, taking climate action, and preserving biodiversity.

But clean-ups alone aren’t enough. Real change starts with our daily habits:

Say no to single-use plastics
Choose reusable alternatives
Speak up and raise awareness in your community

Every action counts. Together, we can protect our planet one sustainable choice at a time.
