Venturer Scouts is for males and females aged 15 to 17 who never turn down a good challenge and love to push themselves to their limits. These ages may vary up to 6 months. Venturer Scouts never turn down a challenge, in fact, they make their own! Scaling a 30m rock-face or abseiling into caves may frighten most people but Venturer Scouts face the challenge head on and then go white water kayaking! As a Venturer Scout you’ll work in Units with other Venturer Scouts and your Adult Leaders are always available to provide you with advice, encouragement, and support. As a Venturer Scout you’re given the freedom to choose your own activities, depending on your interests, because we know that you’re most motivated to achieve when you’re passionate about what you do.

So what can I do in Venturers?

Section Nights

Our venturer unit meets every Thursday night from 7-9pm during the school term where we do fun and challenging  activities. As the venture unit is comprised of older youth members it is ultimately there decision as a unit as to what activities they plan and do. Past activities have included;

  • Chalk  chase 

  • Campfire cooking

  • Tent Run

  • Bike Riding

Unit & District Events

As part of a venture unit you can help plan and participate in unit events such as camps, hikes and outings. where you can do activities that would not typically fit into a section night such as: bush walking, canoeing, abseiling and much more. Unit Events are planed by the unit so you can do what ever you feel like.

​

You can also participate in District events witch are great for meeting new people and hanging out together.

Major Events

There are many major events offered by the scouting movement for venturer aged youth members. These events are a great way to change yourself, have fun and meet other venturers. These events can have as little as 100 people or 10,000 and can have a wide range of activities. You want to go on a hike in the middle of the night and do physically and mentally demanding changes Nighthawk is for you. you want a relaxing but fun get away at Noosa we have an event for that. you want to embark on a 2 week trip to New Zealand with 7000 other venturers go for it.
