Ready for Adventure!
Rovers are our oldest youth section and are self-managed young adults with an elected Unit Leader and executive.
The Scouting movement is all about producing leaders, and here’s where Rovers get to shine. You’ll be able to help lead activities with younger Scout groups and make a difference in young people’s lives. This means a Working with Children check for all over 18s, but it’s a small price to pay for the rewards of leadership. You’ll also have opportunities to bring about positive change in your community.
Rovers get down and dirty each year in a Mud Bash and costumed chaos reigns at the annual ball. There’s a surfing camp at Anglesea, or an Easter hiking challenge. Plus, you can enjoy our own ski chalet near Falls Creek and Mount Baw Baw.
Every three years, Rovers converge on one location for a ten-day extravaganza of activities at the National Moot.
There are Rover Councils at regional and state level, helping to shape our organisation. And there are many training opportunities to build skills that are widely recognised outside Scouting. Our motto is ‘Service’.
