Brief Summary:
The South-Met Region Joey Campfire is an opportunity for Joeys to come together and share a night of singing and fun within their Scouting community.
Additional Information

The Joey Region Campfire is a great opportunity for all of the Joey Mobs in the Region to come together and share songs and skits with other Joeys. This is a great opportunity to meet new friends and hopefully learn a new song or two.

Each Joey Unit will share a song or skit on the night, and leaders are asked to nominate their song and or skit prior to the campfire night. Make sure that you practice before you arrive so that you can teach your song to others that may not know it.

What to wear / bring?

  • Joey shirt and scarf

  • Enclosed shoes (no crocs)

  • Warm clothing as we will be outside

  • Something to sit on (picnic rug or cushion, as we are sitting on natural steps – please no fold up chairs)

  • Headtorch

  • Water bottle

  • Snacks

  • Wet weather jacket (if needed)

Eligibility & Cost

To attend the Joey Region Campfire, your Joey must be registered with Scouts NSW.  Only if needed, a maximum of one parent can attend per youth member so that we can have as many spaces as possible available for the Joeys. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept Joey’s siblings at this event.

Cost:

  • Joey - $5.00

  • Parent - $5.00

  • Leaders – $5.00

  • Rovers - Free

Food

There is no food supplied at this event and Joeys are encouraged to eat dinner prior to arriving. If your Joey would like to bring a snack for themselves to the event, they are more than welcome to do so. Remember to take your rubbish rappers home so that we can keep our environment clean and tidy.

 

Parking & Entry and Campfire Circle Access

On street parking is available on Freemans Road, Heathcote. Please drive slowly as this is a residential area and Joey Scouts will be moving around as they enter this event. Participants are asked to enter via the main gate. There will be signs posed to guide you to the check in desk. All participants must check in prior to making your way down to the campfire circle.

To access the campfire circle, all participants will need to walk down a steep set of stairs that does have a hand rail. Once you reach the seating area, there are no rails so please walk and do not rush or push to ensure the safety of all participants.

Payments

All applications, payments, and e-permissions must be received before the closing date.  Any application not finalised before the closing date will be cancelled.

General Health

If you are unwell or are showing symptoms of a viral disease, we ask that you stay home, self-isolate and look after yourselves.

Refunds 
Refunds for people who withdraw before the application close date will incur a $2.50 fee. Any refund requests after the closing date will result in no refund unless there are documented exceptional circumstances (minus the $2.50 fee).  If a youth member is sent home from the event for any reason, no refund will be given.

Event Postponement

If the activity cannot proceed due to weather conditions, leaders will be notified on the Friday evening prior to the event via email and a general post will be made on the South Metropolitan Region Scouts Facebook page. Leaders will be responsible to advising participants of the event postponement.

We hope to see as many of you at this event as possible and can’t wait to make Scouting memories together.
