History

Toohey Forest district is named after James Toohey, an Irishman made wealthy in the California gold rush. He selected these lands in 1872 and his family held the forests until Brisbane City Council gradually acquired them after 1945.  Toohey Forest district was formed in 1988, and the first District Commissioner was Ron Baker [1].  It was re-structured in September 2018, where Tarragindi and Clifton Hill Scout Groups where transferred into Ekibin District.
