June sped by with the arrival of Jamboree Contingent Options Catalogue purchases, a few more fundraising events, Join in Jamboree sessions, AGMs and a flurry of administrative tasks for the Unit Leaders.
As we entered the final two weeks of preparation before our Jamboree expedition the Unit made a pilgrimage to the 1907 site of Lord Baden Powell's experimental camp on Brownsea Island.
The journey was a logistical challenge but flagged up useful things to the leadership team. Our time on the island was limited but the sun shone, pictures were taken and we saw fabulous wildlife.
On the 1907 site the patrols practiced pitching a Vis-a-Vis replica of the tent that we will receive at the Jamboree, Patrol Leaders were formally sworn in and we had a moment of reflection on the journey ahead.
Such an adventure!
