25.01.2022 This week #austirovers , Lauren, Lainey, Kate, Jacob, Fig and Max ran Venturer Rafting Night at Belmore Basin. Venturers from 1st Balgownie, 1st Keiraville, 1st West Wollongong, 1st Bulli and 1st Austinmer were challenged to sail the seven seas by building rafts, taking their rafts through an obstacle course and testing their buoyancy on water. Big shout outs to our mates Jonathan from Fellowship and Phil from 1st Figtree Rover Crew for lending us a hand. Photos by Lainey Goldsbro

23.01.2022 Last night #austirovers celebrated Christmas with secret santa, there was some naughty and nice presents which all made great entertainment for everyone else there. Famous people such as Nicolas Cage and Fig made a quick appearance, as did our good friend Leah who tuned in from Wales with a little surprise for one of our unit members (guess which one). To top it all off was Emma's cob loaf which was the greatest gift of all. From all of us at Austi Rover Unit Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!!!

23.01.2022 On Tuesday night a few #austirovers joined the scouts at 1st Bulli to run some minute to win it games in a round robin style. Activities included drawing, puzzles and mind games. It was a night enjoyed by all.

23.01.2022 Today is R U OK? day! If your not doing great, that’s ok! It’s always good to reach out to those around you and have a chat. #theresmoretosayafterruok

22.01.2022 Last month we sadly booted Jai. #austirovers and others joined to retell their stories and say goodbye. Good luck in the future Jai, you will be missed by everyone! Credit goes to Jai's mum for the pictures.

22.01.2022 8 #austirovers had an incredible time hiking the Kangaroo Island Wilderness Trail earlier this month! Over the 5 days and 70km, they explored untouched coastline, watched seals play in the water and enjoyed being at one with nature. @ Kangaroo Island

19.01.2022 Last Wednesday we had a hilarious game of Gartic Phone and realised that whilst none of us are artists we sure can have fun in lockdown!

19.01.2022 We had an awesome time on Wednesday night with out Halloween themed murder mystery evening!! Big shoutout to Kate for organising the event! #roversdostuff #halloween

17.01.2022 Earlier this year #austirovers applied for Budget Direct Sponsorship o help with our ongoing Den refurbishment and long story short we were fortunate enough to receive a $2500 sponsorship! This was enough for us to have our floor refinished and boy did they turn out great! Check out our before and after photos (thanks to DPS Flooring for the amazing result). We are so grateful to Budget Direct for this opportunity to breath new life into this old floor. Since 2000, Budget D...irect has had Insurance Solved for more than than 3 million Australians. By offering dependable cover at a price that’s hard to beat, we’re challenging the market dominance of older, more established insurers in Australia. Our commitment to quality and innovation means you can get the cover you want, at a price you can afford, with all the features you’d expect plus a lot more. https://www.budgetdirect.com.au/.

16.01.2022 Over the long weekend, we had some #austirovers all over the place. Reilly attended LEAD in Queensland, Kate attended an event management course for Scouts in South Australia, Steph attended this year's SC&T Jamborette and a whole bunch of good kids headed to GWS People's Moot for a great time. Big thanks to all of the organising committees of each event from the Austi unit. Credits for piccys go to Kate Zuiderwyk, Figtree Rovers, Aaron Newton and any others who took one of this photos but I am unaware of.

15.01.2022 We had an absolutely fabulous time @symbiowildlifepark last weekend. Here’s some of our fav animals! What have you and your unit been up to since Christmas??

15.01.2022 Although we were apart yesterday, we joined together in various ways to thank and celebrate our ANZAC’s. Austi Rovers would like to thank Eleanor who placed a wreath at the Austinmer epitaph to represent all of 1st Austinmer Scout Group. Lest we forget.

14.01.2022 Some of our #austirovers are now well on their way on Meg's hike along the wilderness track on Kangaroo Island. We wish them the best and hope they have an amazing time.

13.01.2022 These fabulous people all travelled to Sydney to celebrate our two BPSA awards over the weekend! It was very fitting because our BPSA awards are certainly a team effort and wouldn't have been possible without these wonderful Rovers

13.01.2022 You are never too old for forts! When we are stuck in our homes, of course we call each other and build pillow forts!

11.01.2022 A team of fabulous Austi Rovers completed the 100km Great Ocean Walk from Apollo Bay to the Twelve Apostles over seven days! It was full of rain, moments of sunshine, a few leeches, plenty of sand and no shortage of slippery mud! We are all so proud of them (and a tad jealous!)!

11.01.2022 On tonight's menu: our signature mocktails Persian Lemon and Elderflower Pink Flamingo Chunky Pina Colada

11.01.2022 Over the weekend #austirovers rocked their Valhalla look and challenged their navigation skills at MMT. While some got lost, others cruised right through, but all had an excellent time. Thanks to @normorovers for a great weekend.

10.01.2022 We had an awesome time swimming with the seals last weekend!!

10.01.2022 On the weekend #austirovers had a cracker of a time at groovin the moot! We embraced our flower power in the festival-themed activities and we rocked out to groovy tunes in the evening. It's safe to say everyone had a great weekend. Big thanks to @merrylandsrovercrew for hosting an excellent weekend. @ Kuringgai Scout Camp

10.01.2022 Yesterday two of our very own Rovers were awarded their BPSA awards by the Governor at Government House! We were so proud of them we all travelled to Sydney to celebrate with a feast afterwards! Brad and Meg are the epitome of world changing rovers and we can't wait to see what they both do next!

08.01.2022 Over the weekend, some current and former #austirovers headed down to the Snowy Mountains for a snowshoeing adventure. From climbing snow-covered mountains, to high-speed tobogganing, to walking on a frozen lake, it was definitely super fun for all!

08.01.2022 What have we been up to pre and during COVID you ask? A camp before everything went down, some cooking and a wellness night as well as throwing round the frisbee! How have you been surviving isolation? #roversdostuff #scoutsaustralia #isolationinstyle

07.01.2022 A massive congratulations to Brad for being awarded his Baden Powell Scout Award last night! We have been so lucky to have you as a key member of our unit and can't wait to see what you achieve next!

05.01.2022 We can't bee-lieve that we forgot to post about our World Bee Night a few weeks ago! It was a fabulous night with Figtree Rover Unit where we learn about Bees, tasted honey, created oragami flowers and made bees wax wraps!

04.01.2022 Last week @razorback_rovers hosted a bunch of us #austirovers to take part in Ethan's Eggcellent Eggadventure Part III, The Cracken. We all enjoyed the many egg-themed activities and ended up in an all out egg war. A big thanks to ethan and razorback for the night.

03.01.2022 Lockdown won't stop us cheering on our Aussie rock climbers!
