There are 3 Generations of the Nickl Family attending this Jamboree as participants. Not only that but they all come from different Scouting districts and are in different areas at the Jamboree.
The NSW Lone Rover crew does not often manage to get together as they are based all over NSW. Events like AJ2010 provide an opportunity for the crew to meet, exchange ideas and perform their crew ceremonies. At AJ2010 they were able to invest two Squires and three Knights into the crew.
A special ceremony took place this week at the Australian Jamboree, being held from 4 – 14 January at Cataract Scout Park, when four Scouts from 1st Caringbah Group were awarded the Australian Scout Medallion.
Sonik Patel, Chris Beauchamp, Duncan Clark and Jessica Juretic, all aged between 13 and 15 years, have been members of Scouts Australia for a number of years and between them have committed considerable time to achieve this award.
The NSW Contingent welfare leaders (CWLs) are responsible for overseeing the well-being of NSW Leaders and Scouts at AJ2010. The CWLs are all experienced leaders who have attended multiple Jamborees. Their combined experience and training is available to the leaders in Jamboree troops. This helps to give leaders and Scouts the best possible Jamboree experience.
Cataract Scout Park is a hive of activity as preparations continue for AJ2010. Across the Contingents and sub-camps tents are being erected, fences built and paths constructed. With only a day to go before the Scouts arrive there is much to do. Sometimes it doesn't look like it but we know it will be ready on time.
The list of personal equipment which Scouts need to take to Jamboree is available in the parents handbook. It is also reproduced below. Please reference this list when packing for Jamboree. Once you're there you can't go back for anything you've forgotten.
Site maps of the Jamboree sub-camps are now available. These maps show the locations of the NSW Contingent troops in the Jamboree sub-camps. A separate map also shows the locations of the Contingent headquarters and other facilities in the mall.
Ever wanted to bend and shape steel? If so, make sure you visit the Blacksmith’s Shed at Australiana Village, the Jamboree’s own historic recreation of colonial life in Australia from about 200 years ago!
There are many other interesting and exciting things to do at the village, such as gold panning and candle making, as history comes to life!
