Título3rd Rose Bay (Judean) Scouts Grand Reunion Dinner
Descripcióncollection titled “3rd Rose Bay (Judean) Scouts Grand Reunion Dinner” containing 74 photographs of current and ex-Scout members attending a reunion for all members of Judean Scouting groups in Sydney. The images were copied to the CD on 20.10.2007 suggesting that the reunion occurred sometime during 2007. The CD includes photographs of members of the 2nd Bondi Judean Scout Troop such as Jack Stern and Wesley Browne as well as leaders of the 3rd Rose Bay Troop at the time such as Leon Waxman and Phillip Hynek. Many of the objects donated for this collection are on display in the background of these photographs including the Senior Scout and 8th Sydney (Judean) Troop flags, correspondence letters, order of service documents and uniform accessories. Most of the photographs are posed shots taken of groups of individuals whilst some others have been taken of speeches being delivered and tables of guests listening to the speeches throughout the formal activities of the reunion.
Before the Zionist youth groups and the rise of the Jewish day schools, the Judean Scouts and Girl Guides played an important role in connecting boys and girls from non-observant homes to Judaism. They could socialize, learn new skills and develop pride in their Jewish heritage. It also provided an opportunity to learn about Judaism, to celebrate the festivals and help prepare boys for their bar mitzvah. As part of the broader Australian Scouting movement, the Sydney Judean Scouts contributed to the development of the Australian community and culture of acceptance, tolerance and friendship and inclusivity for all. This in turn established a sense of Australian identity, which became apparent during the Second World War, when whole scout troops would enlist together.
Part of a large collection of memorabilia donated to the Sydney Jewish Museum by the 3rd Rose Bay Judean Scouts in 2008.
