Speaker - 1st North Sydney Scouts - Stuart Warren
1st North Sydney Scouts (formally 1st Lavender Bay) operates out of the Scout Hall at 1 Munro Street in McMahons Point. While the hall may seem dormant, we are one of the biggest and most active Scout Groups on the Lower North Shore. We have 125 kids (co-ed) aged 5-18 who attend a weekly programme of activities plus 2-3 weekend activities per term, run by 16 volunteer leaders. Over the last 5 years we have been able to invest heavily in new equipment and leader training that lets us run an exciting programme of overnight hiking, canyoning, white water kayaking, abseiling and rock climbing.
1st North Sydney has been established for 12 years now. Over that time we have built increasingly stronger links to the community, including running a fruit & veg co-op, making weekly fresh food donations to LGA residents in financial difficulty and assisting senior residents move large items for council clean up (to mention a few).
