A Tribute To Brendan Boyle
The scouts, leaders and parents of 1st Strathmore Scout Group are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Brendan Boyle who passed away on Thursday 14th of May 2009.
Brendan and his brother Phillip began cub scouts with the group in 1997/1998. Although Brendan never went on to scouts, his and Phillip's involvement was the start of a long and wonderful contribution by the Boyle family to our scout group with Fiona, his older sister, being a Patrol Leader and Premier Scout, and Katherine, his younger sister, being a Sixer and Gold Cord cub scout. In addition his father Steve was President of our group and also the Group Leader for a number of years.
Anyone who met Brendan was fortunate to meet a friendly and outgoing boy, very intelligent and blessed with ability in sports. He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts are with Stephen, Dorothy, Fiona, Philip and Katherine.

Like to become a Leader?
Scouting has much to offer adults, from the excitement of Rovers to the rewards of being a leader. There are also many other opportunities of being involved in the World's largest Youth Movement, such as Scouting Guilds, Fellowship, Foundation, Corporate Scouts and more.
Adult Leaders in Scouting are men and women aged 18 years and over. Leadership provides an opportunity to make a personal contribution to the future and our community.
The rewards of becoming a Leader in the Scout Association include:
- personal satisfaction from doing something positive
- helping young people to develop positive attitudes
- learning new skills
- helping the community
- sharing the fun and excitement of Scouting with other adults and young people
- for parents who are leaders, sharing and enjoying activities with their children
All Leaders need to obtain a 'Working With Children' card through Scouting Australia.
