Camp in Camp

For the Camp in Camp module of the Jamboree, Piccadilly Patrol traveled to a beautiful campsite in the lakeside town of 'Sundit', which is located in the middle of southern Sweden. We were joined by Portuguese, Belgian, Italian and German scouts. As we arrived after a 2 and a half hour coach journey we got our first glimpse of the amazing views across a shimmering lake with luscious green trees and a stunningly sandy beach. On the day we arrived we canoed across the lake and spent the day taking part in water activities which included soap hockey and a water relay race. that evening our hosts treated us to an inspiring insight into traditional Swedish scouting. They invited us to join them in Swedish Campfire and a traditional Swedish camp church which was run by the scout leaders who are also the towns pastors. The next day it was our turn to take part in the forest project, this included a highly eventful and epic game of Capture The Flag in which we played against the Germans and the Italians. After Capture The Flag we made necklaces out of tin. Before leaving Sundit we presented our host with gifts to remind them of their guests from London.
