About Our District Badge
Clarence District comprises that part of Southern Region now
found on the "Eastern Shore" of the Hobart area. In the early
1950s the whole of the state capital was one district (Hobart -
Clarence) the badge depicting the famous floating bridge which
crossed the Derwent at that time. Re-organisation of Scouting
saw the Bowen District created on Hobart's Eastern Shore. (Bowen
led the first European settlers to southern Tasmania.)
At one stage the District was divided in two - one part
Bowen and the one part Clarence. Later rationalisation saw a
reduction to one District, with the name Clarence retained.
The rising sun signifies that this area is to the east of
Hobart where the sun shines first, while the ear of wheat
represents the rural areas in the northern part of this
District.
Howrah Scarf
A traditional scarf is worn as part of the uniform.
Our scarf is yellow for the sand of Howrah Beach and blue for
the waves of the Derwent River.
