Calling all Leaders, Associates, Rovers and Venturers …..

Do you have plans for your summer holidays yet? Would you like to spend time having fun and meeting people while enjoying something you are passionate about?

The Combined North Island Summer Camp is run by a group of volunteers in early January in the two years between Jamboree.

Summer Camp is run very similar to a mini-Jamboree where we can prepare both Leaders, Cubs and Scouts for Jamboree, covering some badge work and training, having a whole lot of fun, while meeting other like-minded people from around the North Island.

If you aren’t attending Summer Camp with your Zone, we would love to have you as part of our volunteer staff team on either the Scout camp, or the Cub camp, or both. Your accommodation and food are supplied along with guaranteed fun and entertainment. We will match you as best we can with your passion and support you in your ‘job’ to ensure you feel confident running the various activities alongside other staff members.

Contact us for further information heading your email with Staff for Summer Camp and tell us which camp you are available for. cnisummercamp@scouts.nz
