Being present in the community assist our public profile & raising money towards the 2018 Jamboree (guides who are 10 or above in the year of 2018 – September 2018 in Sydney is International Jamboree – trip of a lifetime! Approximately $1800 to attend!)
Any parents who assist in fundraising between now & Jamboree will be eligible to a fundraising portion (based on contributions to each event).
If you would assist us this weekend please add your name in comments on this blog post so that everyone can see the times so we don’t have everyone turn up at same time!
Myself, Sam & Jan will be there. Guides in attendance are asked to wear uniform plus hat for SunSmart (no sash). Our presence in the community is important to growing our profile.
