SUGGESTIONS FOR ACTIVITIES DURING A WEEKEND CAMP

  • Collect the Scout Motto "Be Prepared", or the Scout Promise, in as many languages as possible. Remember to also collect the Motto, Promise and Law of other sections of the Movement.

  • Find about about the age ranges and different section names of Scouts around the world.

  • Print out and use some of the International Greetings - then try and add as many different languages to the list as you can during the weekend.

  • Try to establish either email or snail-mail "pen-pal" contacts with other individuals/groups.

  • Collect items of interest from different countries in words e.g. send you their favourite recipe and try it out, a favourite craft, share a favourite game (you will often find that a similar game is played in their country with a different name); perhaps if you are a leader share a programme which has been successful for you and collect ideas for your next programme.

  • Start a scrapbook showing your international interaction; paste in all your emails or pics that you collect.

  • Swap a badge, a stamp, a craft, a scarf, a postcard, a recorded tape (remember that these promises to swap are important to be kept and you should make every attempt to keep them).

  • Record your Group on a cassette tape in a living letter and send it to another Group so that they can hear your Grand Howl or your favourite Campfire song (to name but a few).

  • Use your computer to record a small wav file of your saying something: perhaps a Maori greeting (remember that these files should never be sent unless the recipient is expecting to receive them and has the software and hardware to play them).

  • Use the event to initiate contacts with another Scout Group in your neighbourhood to start a community project.

  • Participate in the JOTI contests/scavenger hunts which will be announced on the WOSM JOTI pages.

  • Have the young people take part in craft activities which would be suitable as gifts to the Scout Contacts who you meet on the net during JOTI.
