KaCey Rovers would like to put forward their idea of a rover-venturer link up with the venturer units within the Kapiti Coast Zone.
Please send me a message via this website if you or your venturer unit has some ideas of what activities you guys and gals would like to do with us.
Thanks

Looking for some gripping yarns about Venturers? Thought boys don't love books? Try Christopher J. Holcroft's Only The Brave Dare and CANYON.
Both books follow the exciting adventures of Venturer Scout Scott Morrow as he faces off with a group of Russian Mafia and also helps save a Venturer during a major canyoning trip.
Both books were written by a Venturer Leader and are aimed at Scouts and Venturers who love a good roller coaster ride in adventure. Check out previews at Google books or

Happy Venturing,

Chr istopher J. Holcroft

SIVAC 2008

 Brendan on Thu 10 Jul 08 - 11:19 
The South Island Venturer’s Annual Convention is making a comeback with a weekend filled
with fun, frivolity and friendship (with a bit of seriousness thrown in too). Catch up with
mates, share ideas and have a laugh along the way. We want all of the Units in the South
Island to come on down (or up) and show the odd Northerner (yes they’re invited too) how
to have a good time.

Introducing the NZ Contingent Leader for the Australian Venture: Escape

 keith on Tue 15 Apr 08 - 09:46 


Hello everyone
My name is Mark Godsiff. I’m the NZ Contingent Leader for the trip to the Australian Venture: Escape.
I may look old, but I’ve got the heart and mind of a 25 year old. Just ask my local Venturer Unit!

In Scouting, I achieved the Queen Scout Award at the age of 16.5 and over the years have attended a number of Jamborees and Ventures, two of which were overseas and the rest were local. At present, I’m the Regional Venturer Leader for the Lower South Island, and have been running our local unit in South Otago for the last 5 years.

My full time job is Youth Training for Agriculture New Zealand in Dunedin, where I conduct hands on tutorials in the farming sector.

I’m looking forward to meeting Venturers from different parts of NZ and hope to enjoy challenge of being the Escape NZ Contingent Leader. We have an awesome trip ahead of us, including a post-Venture tour.

If you are thinking of coming to Escape, welcome aboard the fun ship. You won’t regret it!

You can download the registration form here

Yours in Scouting
