🌟 Join the Adventure — Become a Leader at Nerang Scout Group! 🌟
Our Scout Group is growing fast — and that is such an exciting thing! More youth are discovering the fun, friendships, and adventure that Scouting offers... and we need a few more amazing adults to help make it all possible.
Right now, Nerang Scout Group is looking for:
1 Male Leader for Joey Scouts (5-7yrs)
2 or more Leaders for Cub Scouts (8-11) (we're growing so much we may soon need to split into two Cub units!)
1–2 Leaders for Scouts (11-15)
If you've ever thought, "Maybe I could help out..." — this is your moment.
🏕 What Does a Scout Leader Do?
Being a Scout Leader isn't about having all the answers or being an expert camper.
It's about supporting, guiding, and encouraging young people as they learn through fun and adventure.
Leaders help youth experience things like:
Camping and outdoor adventures
Teamwork and leadership development
Community service and local events
Life skills, resilience, and confidence-building
Pioneering, cooking, navigation, and creative challenges
Making friendships that last a lifetime
You'll be helping youth grow into capable, caring, community-minded young people — and having a lot of fun along the way.
🎓 Training, Support & Costs Covered
Worried you don't have experience? Don't be.
Scouts Queensland provides excellent training, mentoring, and resources, and our Group will support you every step of the way.
✅ Nerang Scout Group pays for your registration and training fees
✅ You'll complete recognised leader training at your own pace
✅ You'll work as part of a friendly team — never on your own
✅ All leaders are supported through the Scouts QLD program and safety framework
Many leaders say they gain just as much as the youth do!
🚀 Learn New Skills & Run Adventurous Activities
One of the coolest parts of being a leader is the opportunity to build your own skills too.
Through Scouts QLD, leaders can undertake courses that allow them to run activities such as:
Canoeing and kayaking
Rock climbing and abseiling
Bushcraft and survival skills
Hiking and remote camping
And other adventurous activities
It's a chance to try things you may never have done before — alongside a supportive team.
🙌 Not Ready to Be a Leader? Other Roles Available!
We understand not everyone can commit to a weekly leadership role — but there are still plenty of ways to help.
We also have opportunities for parents to assist in support roles such as:
Group Secretary
Group Chairperson
Fundraising Committee Members
Event helpers and activity support (Adult members)
Every bit of help strengthens what we can offer our youth.
💚 Why We Need You
Scouting is run by volunteers — parents and community members who step forward to make sure our kids can keep having amazing opportunities.
With just a few more adults joining the team, we can:
Keep up with our growing numbers
Offer even more adventures
Ensure every youth gets the attention and support they deserve
Continue building a thriving Scout Group in Nerang
