Australian Contingent to the 13^th World Scout Moot Kenya 2010

Things have been a ticking along quietly for the contingent the last month or two with a lot of behind the scenes planning going. We have come out of the early stages of planning with a solid bade on which to build a great trip. We now have all of our payment details, travel and tours set out. We are also starting to receive more applications.

The focuses of the next couple of months will be to promote the moot wide and far. You can help by telling all the Rovers you know or see about the fantastic opportunity of going to the first World Scout Moot to be held in Africa.

I hope that everyone has a great Christmas and New Year and I look forward o receiving your applications in the new year.

Mick Freeman,

Australian Contingent Leader,
13th World Scout Moot.

World Scout Moots are held every four years for scouts between the ages of 18-26. Previously Moot’s have been held in Switzerland, United Kingdom, Australia and more. However the 13^th World Scout Moot will be special for two main reasons. Firstly there has not been a World Scout Moot since Taiwan in 2004 and secondly it is the first time that a World event will be held in Africa.

 

I for one am very excited and enthusiastic about the 13^th World Scout Moot as it presents amazing life experience, leadership, teamwork and cultural opportunities to us young people that would never be available in a day-to-day environment.  Not to mention the chance to make some awesome friends and have a fantastic time doing it!
