18.01.2022 We're Zoomin' with a bit of Jackbox Like all other Scouts in Australia, we had to modify our program for #Scoutingathome Luckily in our program for this week, we had an easy night of boardgames, so we jumped on and played Jackbox! ... Everybody throughly enjoyed the night! We've already brain stormed how we would do other nights via Zoom such as cooking nights and DND so stay tuned!

17.01.2022 MKR has had some budget cuts recently and its gone very low budget but Ironbark Rover Crew was up to the challenge! Crew members fought in the inaugural Ironbark Rover Crew MKR Challenge to produce a quick to make but delicious meal suitable for camping! The creations ranged from 5 minute nachos to chicken rice paper rolls! We also learned how took can spilt a block to chocolate and a mars bar to split between a cub pack by making a 10 minute slice!

17.01.2022 Members of the Ironbark Rover Crew helped out Grovely-Mitchelton Scout group this weekend at a classic Bunnings sausage sizzle It was a very busy sausage sizzle, with snags flying off the bbq to customers as fast as we could make them.

We reflected on what Scouting meant for us and chatted about how the fundamental principles of Scouting are even more relevant today than when BP founded in the movement in 1908. ... It was great to see such a big turn out from the district!

09.01.2022 Ironbark Rovers got zoomy tonight riding around on some of Brisbanes newest and coolest transport options. It was a bit of a hike to track down our the elusive limey bois but we eventually tamed some mighty steeds! The zoomy bois got some wicked speeds and we got some cool tricks in

05.01.2022 WE NEED YOUR HELP!

It would mean the world to the Rover Scouts of Ironbark if you would be able to support our fundraising by dropping in your token in our jar next time you're in store! ... Were here all month until the end of the October, so plenty of time to get your burger fix! Grill'd Everton Park

04.01.2022 The Ironbark Rover crew has had a busy week over the last 7 days! On Monday the Rovers tried our best at bouldering at 9 Degrees Brisbane! Some of us were starting out but others were flying ahead on some of the harder courses It was a great night enjoyed by all who attended and the crew!

04.01.2022 These are the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and last place teams from 2017! Think your team can take them down this year?! Then dont forget to sign your team up by emailing [email protected] !!!

03.01.2022 To celebrate our districts 60th anniversary, a bunch of our rovers spent this weekend hiking between all the dens in the district! It was a great chance to hangout with all of the younger sections and learn about our districts history!

01.01.2022 Who else has to click the tongs before cooking to make sure they are definitely working? Ironbark Rovers surely did as we picked up the tongs and helped out Grovely-Mitchelton Scout Group with a Bunnings sausage sizzle at the Keperra Store. Grovely-Mitchelton are the hosts of our district Rover den so we thought that it was a great way to give some service back to our local Scouting community. ... It was a great day with the snags flying off the BBQ faster than we could cook them!
