Adult Recognition Awards nominations open

It is time to recognise some of the most valuable Scouts in your life by nominating them for the 2024 Scouts Australia Adult Recognitions Awards!

ARAs are awarded to active Adult Leaders, Rover Scouts and other adult members and supporters who have given valuable service to Scouts Australia over an extended period. Such awards are granted for sustained commitment to the Association, both within and beyond the designated roles and responsibilities for these members.

These awards recognise our volunteers for going above and beyond the call of duty. Anyone can submit a nomination and any adult member can be nominated, including Leaders, Supporters, Rovers and employees.

This year to make the process easier and ensure nominators have provided all the relevant information for their submission, nominations can be submitted online.

(NOMINATIONS NOW CLOSED FOR 2024)

There are 10 different categories in the ARAs – check the category criterion and guidelines for each award here. This will help you to ensure your proposed nominee is eligible prior to creating your submission.

If you have problems with the portal, a paper version of both the ARA and the Rover Service Award nomination forms are available on the Scouts NSW website, but please try submitting them via the online form.

Submissions are now closed.

The 2024 ARA recipients will be announced on 1 August 2024.

If you have any problems or questions, email aras@nsw.scouts.com.au
