Scout Association Membership Fee

Group fees
To enable us to provide weekly meetings for each of the Sections, a number of resources are needed, such as craft material, first aid equipment, maps, compasses, etc. These resources enable us to deliver our Scout Program to all of our members, and are paid for out of our Section Subscriptions.
For the 2019/2020 year, the section fees are $150 per year.
Fundraising
In order to provide training and insurance cover for the Group (accident and income protection for Leaders and members of the Committee) and to equip the Sections with camping equipment etc., funds need to be raised.
All families are expected to participate in the fundraising activities undertaken by the Group. By raising funds in this manner, it will prevent the need for additional levies to be charged or increases in Section Subscriptions.
Victor Scout Group fundraising activities include:
- Sausage sizzles at Bunnings Mt Gravatt store.
- Sausage sizzles at ANZAC Day service in WJ Scott Park – supported by the Holland Park Sub-Branch of the Queensland RSL.
- Annual Christmas raffle.
Payment
Members can pay for the above charges by cash or cheque, however, our preferred method of payment is by direct credit to the Victor Scout Group bank account.
