Membership Explained
Your Membership Explained
IMPORTANT: As a result of Scouts NSW changing their billing cycle, your Membership of Scouts NSW for the TREK period from 15th July 2024 will next expire around 15th April 2025. Scouts NSW changed their membership Fees from 2 Terms to 3 Terms on 5th July 2024 without prior notice.
2nd Turramurra Scout Group however, are keeping with 2 Terms per Trek so the Group Fees for the current Trek cover 15th July to 15th Dec 2024. Further details will be provided in 2025.
At the end of each Trek, you must re-Register before attending as your membership has been archived.

Youth age: will determine the fees applicable and the section (Unit) they will be in, when Registering or being Upgraded.
Adult Leaders, Committee and Helper members are free
New Youth Members also pay a one-off Scouts NSW Joining Fee - currently $60.
A: Returning Members: If you are a current FULL MEMBER, use the REGISTRATION link.
· Enter the Member Name & DOB etc to access your existing archived record.
· Returning Members will have their inactive profile restored - it's easy.
· For details, open the document below "How to Re-Register at 2nd Turramurra.pdf"
B: New Members: can choose to be a FULL (paid) Member or a TRIAL/TEMPORARY Member.
C: Continuing Trial Members: are UPGRADED. Do not register again!
· Temporary Members can become Full Members before returning.
Once you have used your free trial sessions, the Membership Coordinator will send you an individual UPGRADE link. You cannot Register again as your Trial Membership details are still in the Scouts NSW database and will be used during the Upgrade process. You will be asked to pay the fees applicable at that time. Note: Once your trial session dates are used, your child cannot attend until their Full Membership Upgrade is completed.
Notes:
· Youth, Leaders and official Adult Helpers must be REGISTERED with Scouts NSW to attend any scouting activity like normal weekly activities.
· Youth, Leaders and official adult helpers need to be current members of Scouts NSW and be registered in Operoo to be invited to Activities requiring Permission e-Forms.
· Note that non-members of Scouts NSW will have their Operoo Profiles Archived at the start of the youth program each Scouts NSW Trek period, so Register early!
· The Fees you pay include the Scouts NSW Fees and the 2nd Turramurra Group Fees.
· Discounts are offered for the 2nd Turramurra Scout Group Fee component:
This is offered to:
1) Leaders children's Group Fee component.
2) Committee members children's Group Fee component.
3) Parents with Multiple Children in 2nd Turramurra will be offered a Group Fee discount
Leaders and official Adult Helpers (WWCC and Application required) have their fees covered.
Note: It is expected that all Adult Helpers will volunteer plenty of their time to help our youth.
Contact Anna (Committee membership role) before registering if you fall into the discount categories above.
The Scouts NSW fee is fixed and controlled by Scouts NSW. Pro-rata reductions sometimes occur throughout the Trek (dates and values unknown).
The 2nd Turramurra Scout Group Fee component will be pro-rata reduced monthly over the Trek.
Hardship provisions may be available on application directly to Scouts NSW. This must be organised before registering as it is unlikely Scouts NSW will offer a refund after registering.
