Scouting is a youth led movement. What that means is that our youth actually are the ones who organise and run the program with adult support. A great example of that is this week, where one of the scouts in 1st Murrumbateman suggested a fishing night! The scouts organised to go to a local dam, and had success catching some Redfin!

On the October long weekend, 3 scouts and a leader attended the 42nd South Coast and Tablelands Jamborette at Bengalee Scout Camp at Cambewarra, near Nowra. The Jamborette celebrated the 100th anniversary of scouting in South Coast and Tablelands. In generally awesome weather, the Murrumbateman scouts participated in a range of adventurous activities including abseiling, canoeing and a massive flying fox. Other activities included STEM/electronics bases, a commando course, giant games, Lego robotics and archery, to name a few. They enjoyed night activities too including stealth Nerf Gun combat and were also seen busting out some cool moves on the dance floor at the disco.

The Murrumbateman scouts joined a combined Dapto Unit for the camp, giving the scouts an opportunity to experience working in a patrol. On the last afternoon/evening we survived a massive wind storm and attended a very cool communal dinner with the whole camp. Thank you to SC&T for the invite and the wonderful leaders and scouts from Dapto who all made us feel very welcome.

Earlier this year cubs worked on their understanding of trail signs. This is another of the skills that youth members develop whilst meeting weekly before larger adventures. Of course, once the trail signs were known, the cubs got a little creative!

Recently our Venturers got their craft on! Another core component of the scouting program is "creative", where youth members get to plan an activity and complete it for the award scheme. Our Venturers tie-dyed t-shirts, cut them up and turned them into mess-kit bags for camps.

Last week the cubs got their Bear Grylls on, learning compass skills, and completing a navigation course. These skills that are taught to the cubs become foundational skills as they develop and begin to participate in more adventurous activities in older sections.

This is a view from the Venturers' camp at Mt Clear in Namadgi National Park two weekends ago. The extreme windspeeds were a good test of their hiking tents and equipment. Despite the challenges, youth members enjoyed their camp away honing their backpacking skills.
