"The Scout Association, established over 98 years ago, is one of the Australia’s largest Youth Organisation.  Its fundamental Aim, which are still as relevant today as when first outlined, are to encourage and promote the physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual development of young people.
The Association achieves this Aim by progressive self-education programs, which focus on initiative, teamwork and cooperation, and community service and spirit. The development of leadership skills is a significant part of the Scout program, which ultimately helps today’s youth become tomorrow’s leaders.
In Queensland, more than 10,000 young people aged between 6 - 26 years are actively involved in a wide range of Scouting activities - from the Scouting in Schools program through to Scouts of the Air for young people living on isolated properties in North-West Queensland.
Over 3,500 adults and uniform Leaders voluntarily give up a substantial amount of their spare time as part of their commitment to developing young people as they progress through the program to become the community Leaders of the future.  All adult members who apply to members of the Scout Movement undertake an extensive background history check and are required to be a holder of a blue card issued by the Commission for Children and Young People and Child Guardian.
The Association believes in equal opportunities for all, no matter what the social, economic, ethnic, religious or political backgrounds. Its focus is, and always has been, to provide quality, educational and enjoyable programs to help the development of young people through a diverse range of programs.
The aim of Scouts Australia, Queensland Branch is to encourage the physical, intellectual, social, emotional and spiritual development of young people so that they take a constructive place in society as responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities."

message: Each region of Scouts Queensland has a website. Some (such as Brisbane North) are a template page, others such as Moreton have more detail. Should we be linking to all regions? exclude the templates? --RobBrisbane 05:08, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

message: VenMX does not exist anymore, and this section should be removed.
*Fully support. This is not notable and would be deleted if it went to AfD. I think this merge should be done quickly.  --Bduke 02:04, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge of [[Venmx]] here

message: The organization is normally referred to as Scouts Queensland, or Queensland Branch (of Scouts Australia / The Scout Association of Australia). "The Current Chief Commissioner for Scouting Queensland is Maurice Law, AM.
" - sounds wrong.  RobBrisbane 10:19, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This name was chosen so that the article could cover scouting not associated with Scouts Australia and comforms with article names in all other states. It's less cumbersome than Scouts Australia - Queensland Branch also. :: maelgwn :: talk 10:29, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Scouting in Queensland vs Scouts Queensland 

message: Gang Shows are not notable. They rarely get any kind of reliable independent sources. This Gang Show may be old, but that is not verified. It is mentioned already here at Scouting in Queensland as one of the five oldest. It is also mentioned in Gang Show where I can not find a single show that has its own article. The links for the UK Gang Shows are to County articles. I propose that this article be made a redirect to here, and the point about it being the second oldest be added here if it can be verified by a reliable source. Please give you views below. Note it was created earlier and deleted on September 17, 2006, but that was for a copyvio.
* 'support. As above. --Bduke (talk) 07:14, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Scouts Australia.svg

message: It would be good if the text "Cairns Control Room with Scout's Hat" could be added under the image to explain what the image is all about. However I can not figure out how to do that. Can anyone help? --Bduke (talk) 11:13, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
