Maryland/Shortland Scout group is a not for profit volunteer organization which provides the local youth aged 6-18 with an opportunity to gain life skills in a fun supported environment.
The origins of the Scouts Australia movement began in 1908 and has progressed to become one of the leading youth organisations in Australia, that is committed to the growth and development of our youth. A vast number of youth that have gone through the scout movement have gone on the become Industry leaders.
Maryland /Shortland Scout Group has been an active community supporter for more than 20 years and has grown to include almost 100 youth from Joeys to Adventurer Scouts despite having no visible presence in the community.
As the land is located in a greenfield development area the community is in dire need of social infrastructure as well as infrastructure that meets the needs of our youth. We believe this to be a vital asset and resource to our growing local community."
We the undersigned call on Newcastle City Council to assist (Scouts Australia for Maryland / Shortland Scout Group) to secure the purchase of a parcel land located on the corner of Minmi Rd and Maryland Drive Maryland for the purpose of a new Scout Hall.
