Could you help a group of Bayside Sea Scouts Venturers hike the Kokoda Trail in PNG this July?
Imagine you are 16 or 17 years old. You've walked the Kokoda Foundation Gold Coast 96km walk, twice, with your mates. You've raised thousands of dollars for youth who need it. You've experienced what it means to work as a team to push through, walking for more than 30 hours without sleep through the night, only stopping for a bit of food and drink.
Then you decide to raise the funds needed to go to PNG to walk the real Kokoda Trail. You've secured a grant, raised well over $30,000 and are down to the last $4000. Imagine that.
Walk the real Kokoda trail. In PNG. Remember those who served there. Walk with and support your mates to relive their footsteps.
This July a patrol of Bayside Sea Scouts Venturers along with a Venturer from each of Algester and Rochedale Scouts will be walking the Kokoda Trail in PNG. They are looking for local supporters to help them raise their last $4000.
If you are a business or an individual, and are able to help our Venturers bridge their final funding gap please message us or our Venturer Scout Leader Brian McIntosh. We are looking for Gold ($500), Silver ($250) and Bronze ($100) sponsors. We'll recognise you on social media and on a board at the Bayside Sea Scouts Landship (our Hall).
Shape young lives by enabling them. Reward service and effort.
