Juliana ADDISON (Wendouree) (10:32): Last week I had the pleasure of attending the Ballarat District Scouts annual report and awards night presentation. It was terrific to hear about scouting across our region from the youngest Joeys to the most senior Rovers.

The Ballarat District Scouts were established in 1909, and today there are more than 450 youth participants and 100 adult leaders involved across our region. Well done to those who received Scout awards and to the leaders who were recognised for many years of service, including Tony and Verena Doyle, Brad Pryor, Gavin Parkinson and Daniel Chappell. Thanks to the district commissioner Shane Hall for the presentation of my scarf with the friendship knot.
