The Hoadley Area in Scouting refers to a regional designation within Scouts Victoria, named in honour of Charles Hoadley, a pioneering Antarctic explorer and influential figure in Australian Scouting. While there isn’t a formal “Hoadley Area” in Sunshine today, the name is most prominently associated with the Hoadley Hide—a major Venturer Scout event. Sunshine, Deer Park, St. Albans and Brimbank Scout Troops are part of the Hoadley Area. 🧭 Charles Hoadley’s Legacy - Charles Hoadley (1887–1947) was a geologist on Douglas Mawson’s Australasian Antarctic Expedition and later became Chief Commissioner of Scouts Victoria. - He championed youth leadership, bushcraft, and adventure-based learning. - The Hoadley Hide was named in his honour and began in the 1950s as a way to challenge Venturers in navigation and initiative. 🏕️ Sunshine & Hoadley Hide - Sunshine-area Venturer Units (including Sunshine, Deer Park, and Brimbank District) have long participated in Hoadley Hide events. - Teams from Sunshine have: - Competed under creative patrol names - Won awards for initiative and teamwork - Contributed staff and Rover support - The event is often held in bushland areas like Castlemaine, Mataranka, or Tallarook, but Sunshine units travel statewide to participate. 🗂️ Historical Area Structures - In earlier decades, Scouts Victoria was divided into Areas (e.g. Hoadley Area, Baden-Powell Area), which grouped districts for administration and events. - Sunshine is part of a Hoadley-named Area, especially during the 1960s–80s, but these structures have since evolved into Regions and Districts.

Central Australia Trip report. 15th September to 2nd October 1993 This trip was attended by five leaders, seven scouts and two venturers. It was a great trip which was enjoyed by all who attended. The countryside was quite different to what we expected and we were lucky enough to see all the wild flowers out. The highlight of the trip were: Flying over Ayres Rock [Uluru] and the Olgas Climbing the rock Riding a camel Walking through King’s Canyon A tour through Cooper Pedy including an underground house McDonalds for lunch on the last day Everyone got on well and there were no injuries or car problems. Four flat tyres were our only problem. Our only complaints were the flies and the strong wind. Central Australia was well worth a visit.

The Queen’s Guide (Girl Guides) and Governor’s Award / Queen’s Scout (Boy Scouts) were the highest youth honours in their respective movements. In Victoria, these awards were traditionally presented by the Victorian Governor at formal ceremonies held at Government House. These presentations symbolised civic leadership, service, and the connection between youth organisations and the State. The Governor at the time of this ceremony was Sir Brian Murray and the Lieutenant‑Governor was Sir James Gobbo. These ceremonies were often performed by either the Governor or the Lieutenant‑Governor, depending on scheduling.
