Mel Nicholls

Victorian Rover Scout who volunteered for the

World Scout Foundation Event, March 2016

“I’ve met inspiring Scouters from around the world who invest countless

hours and dollars into Scouting. I’ve helped to host the King of Sweden

and the BP Fellows. I’ve helped to shepherd 8,000 Cub Scouts around

Melbourne Zoo. I attended a leadership forum of inspiring Scouts such

as the King of Sweden and Dick Smith. Events and opportunities like

these prove that Scouting is alive and well in the 21st Century.”

Scouts Australia is managed by the National Executive Committee, a body of volunteers consisting of the Chair, National

Executive Committee; the Chief Commissioner of Australia; the Honorary Treasurer; Branch Chief Commissioners; Branch

Chairs or Presidents; the National Commissioners and the National Rover Council Chair.
