Scouting became a wonderful way of gathering our children and teaching the principals of respect for nature, our heritage and for each other.
The Australian/Lithuanianscouting movement bases its principles on the worldwide scouting organisation instituted by Sir Baden Powell in 1908.
The mission of Lithuanian scouting is to provide children of Lithuanian descent a framework in which to build character and grow into responsible citizens through the philosophy of scouting.
With a focus on Lithuanian culture, traditions, and language, using physical as well as intellectual activities, scouting has been an integral part of our youth growing into responsible adults.

With a foreign tongue and new set of eyes, how have Lithuanians contributed to our new land?
How have we integrated into society in Australia?
Who have been some of our leading lights?
Leading Lights, amalgamating into the broader community
Wedged in between Germany, Poland and Russia, Lithuania has a 99 km coastline along the South-Eastern elbow of the Baltic Sea.
Lithuania’s total land area is 65,200 sq km – not much different to that of Tasmania, yet is populated much more densely: its present population is about 3.2 million.
Lithuanians speak an ancient Indo-European tongue and is a cousin to modern Latvian. Viewed more broadly, Lithuanian is related to Ancient Greek, Latin and Sanskrit which is the oldest known member of the Indo-European family.

As a first generation Australian Lithuanian, I am proud to say that both countries are better off having the wonderful dialogue that we now share with both our cultures.

While at Bonegilla we were able to achieve a few significant things: we organised a folk art exhibition, prepared a Baltic concert for the Minister for Immigration Mr Calwell, and organised a Kūčios.
