Dear Scouting Members,

It has been an honour to serve you all as Chief Scout, and prior to that as the Chief Commissioner. I can take little credit for the incredible work that the national team – including all those staff and volunteers from the Chief Commissioner and CEO all the way to the Regional Commissioners – have given in supporting your efforts to deliver safe, accessible and positive growth experiences to our Meerkats, Cubs, Scouts and Rovers.

I would like to thank all of our members for your hard work and contributions to making Scouting the movement that it is.  I wish Khonzaphi Mdaka all the best as he steps into the role from tomorrow, knowing that he has the support of a great team both in the leadership but also more importantly on the ground who will work with him in taking SCOUTS South Africa into its next era of growth and prosperity.

I will continue to serve the Movement both locally and internationally and I look forward to meeting you and working with you as our Scouting journeys continue into the future.

Yours in Scouting,
Dr Brendon Hausberger
