Jamboree on the Air - For those interested in going in a group

JOTA this weekend.

For those who are interested in coming in a group, we are meeting up at 19th Camberwell Scout Hall at 10.30 am, Saturday, and carpooling together to the Box Hill North Scout Hall. Jon Mason will be able to pick 5 other Scouts. Might need some other Scout Parents to help transport Scouts as well for those Scouts coming along.

It'll be fun to go in a group, but you are welcome to go on your own too. I have been for a few JOTIs in my time and it was always fun.
