What is the BSC?
The BSC Executive is a team of Scouts (aged 11-14) who work to support Scout Units in the ACT to deliver a youth program for Scouts that is adventurous, fun, challenging and inclusive.
The BSC Executive organises two meetings each term for Scout Units to share great ideas, plan awesome Scout events, and discuss topics that impact Scouts. These meetings are a great opportunity for Scouts to have their voices heard and help to improve Scouting in Canberra - plus, there is free pizza at every meeting!
What positions are available?
Applications are now open for the following BSC Executive positions:
- BSC Chair - organises meetings, represents Scouts at events, and leads the BSC
- BSC Vice Chair - assists with meetings and supports the BSC Chair
- BSC Secretary - takes notes during meetings
- Up to three BSC Executives - organise Scout events and run the BSC social media accounts
These roles will be elected for the next 12 months. The BSC Executive must remain active members of their Unit during their term of office.
Check out the BSC Terms of Reference for more information about the BSC.
