Celebrating 100 years of Scout's!

Monday 7th May 2007
Storm Water Preservation (Storm), Blue Scope Water and Scout’s Australia have great pleasure in hosting a celebration for Scout’s 100th Anniversary at Parliament House, Victoria on May 17th 2007. With Politicians arriving nationally for the event, the function aims to promote Scout’s Australia being innovative in a quest to save our nations water and commemorate their centenary.

“Scout’s do amazing things for our society and coincidentally are celebrating their centenary world wide this year. We can not only celebrate their past, but ensure their future success in a mission to help them be self sufficient with their water and educate the community about water savings” Alisha Kay Marketing Manager for Storm says.

Storm’s role is to ensure that Scout’s become independent in their water usage. In doing this they would save the equivalent of the O’Shannassy reservoir over a four-year period. This is equivalent to 3000 Giga Litres of Water.

Scout’s have a critical importance to families and the community and Storm assists Scout’s Australia harvest rainwater effectively and educate on water preservation. The vital Federal Community Water Grants also assist in the conservation of water and provide assistance of up to $50,000 per community centre. This support has been extended to support Scout’s independently with the Prime Minister John Howard announcing that it will fund 1600 Scout Halls and activity centres nationally. The 17.7 million dollar grant which was announced Friday 4th May, 2007 ensures our children still have the opportunity to experience the invaluable lessons that Scout’s embody.

Round three of the Community Water Grant is now open and Storm and its installation provider BlueScope Water provide applicants with a complete solution from application, to implementation to facilitate a fully integrated system and put water back into the community.

Whilst this event is focussed on Scout’s Australia, school’s, sporting clubs, nursing homes and all community organisations are eligible and are encouraged to apply for the Community Water Grant.

Special guests invited for the evening include Prime Minister John Howard, former Scout’s Bert Newton, Jamie Durie, David Parkin, Robert De Castella, Shane Jacobson and prominent members of Federal and State Parliament.

Alisha Kay Marketing Manager of Storm Water Preservation and David Jones, CEO of Scout’s Victoria are available for interview.
