tents at the weather's mercy, with 6 - 7,000 other Scouts
on site, then YES it is. All meals are prepared on each

What will Scouting Waitaki be doing there? |
Scouting Waitaki will be represented by about 12 Scouts, but specially for this Jamboree we will be combining with Scouting Waimate and Scouting Oamaru-Waireka. This presents an oppourtunity to design a special badge for the Jamboree. A completition was run and a composite basdge was the result. The contingent wil be traveling an the 27th of December to arrive at the Jamboree on the 28th. | |
