Phil Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Hi All I'm on the staff team at this years Essex International Jamboree here in sunny (and sometimes rainy!) England and was wondering if any of you are coming over to see us this time? You can check us out at www.essexscouts.org.uk/jamboree I'll check this topic to see if there are any replies, in the mean time happy Scouting to you all.

Be_Prepared Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Do you know if this is being held at the same location as Eurojamb will be next summer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 14, 2004 Author Share Posted April 14, 2004 No it's not on the same site. The Essex International jamboree is on a farm site of 150 acres near the village of Kirby-le-Soken. Follow this link to see where we will be. www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?lat=51.8559&lon=1.2338&scale=25000 Eurojam is at Hylands Park near Chelmsford also in Essex. this is a large country park and is also the venue for the 2007 World Jamboree. Eurojam is being seen as a good way to prepare for the much bigger set up required for the World Jamboree.

Eamonn Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hi Phil. Had a look at the web site. Things are looking good. Sad to say most of the troops on this side of the pond would need a lot more notice. We also have the National Jamboree coming up in 2005, so there are a lot of Scouts saving up for that. My one sister just moved to Chelmsford last year. She was going to a Elton John concert last year at what will be the site of the World Jamboree. If I am over at the time of the Essex Jamboree I will look in. It is nice to have another Brit in the Forum. It would be great to hear how all the changes are working out. Welcome to the forum.

dozer Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Eamonn I thought you would like to here from him. I found him on a dead website and pointed him over here. Welcome Phil, glad that the PM got through. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted April 15, 2004 Author Share Posted April 15, 2004 Nice to be here. As you mention Eamonn, there have been lts of changes in Scouting here. Probably best to post in the "Open Discussion" forum on that subject. By the way I'm a moderator on our own forum system, feel free to join us at: www.essexscouts.org.uk/forums. Best wishes Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
