A few years ago I had the misfortune to have to sit through a scout group at stapylton who were setting off fireworks in january. We complained to their leaders, who did nothing. Come Monday morning I did a little googling and found the email address for the supreme commander (or whatever his official title was) of the Scouting movement in victoria. I can't say what happened in the end, but I got the impression he was absolutely mortified. It didn't hurt that I was working for the Department of Justice at the time, and that my email address looked far more official and scary than it should have.

In many respects there's not much point complaining at the time. If the leaders had control of the group it wouldn't be happening in the first place. Find out where the group are from, then find their regional commissioner on this page.
