You may notice posts from the Venturer section being slightly different. Our Venturer Public Relations Officer is now taking, collating other’s and selecting photos, and writing the posts. So what you’re seeing and reading is fully from the youth’s perspective.
Last weekend our Venturers went on a city exploration trip, taking the train into the city Saturday morning, staying overnight in Carlton Scout hall, and then making their way home Sunday. The first thing we did was visit the Queen Vic market, we did lots of browsing and eating at the street food stalls. We then went to our main activity of the day, indoor rock climbing, where we spent about two hours trying to get to the top (but not always succeeding). We then went to Melbourne Central for our lunch and a bit of shopping. We invested our newest leader Alex in Fed Square, and we hope he has a great journey as our leader! Our next stop was street art in Hosier and AC/DC lanes, and then ACMI, before we concluded our day at the Crown fire lights. We caught a tram to Carlton and set up for the night. Our unit leader Ben and deputy unit leader Sam organised this trip as a Special Interest Area (SIA) project, which is another stepping stone to them both getting their peak awards. On Sunday some Venturers went to RMIT open day, whilst others made their way home and everyone had a big rest after our outing!
