Many of our Scouts attend the Australian Jamboree which is held every three years. Similar events are held for all other levels of Scouting to provide all members with fantastic opportunities to experience new activities and make new friends. There are even international opportunities to enable our youth to expand their horizons even further.

Location - We operate from two locations. Our main hall is on the corner of Humphries Road & Baden Powell Drive in Frankston South, while we also have another hall right on the beach at Canadian Bay in Mt Eliza. Both are well equipped to provide a wide range of land and water-based activities.

During summer months we offer a variety of water activities to all our members. We have four Pacer sailing yachts, six sea kayaks, eight canoes, six sit on top kayaks, two stand up paddle boards and two motor boats.

Our leaders - All our leaders have been trained by Scouts Australia and have Victoria Police clearances as well as the State Government 'Working with Children' check. Many of them are also qualified first aiders and are there to make sure your child enjoys a safe, but exciting Scouting experience.
