To find out, make enquiries through your District Leader or to the ScoutHike Coordinator.Overnight Accommodation for ALL Adults, Venturers, Rovers and LeadersALL Adults, Venturers, Rovers and Leaders are required to sleep at their designated Sleep Point while at ScoutHike. There are two main reasons for this: firstly it is part of the 'conditions of use' within our licence, and secondly we kneed to know where you are to if we need your help to assist with, or evacuate, our youth to a different location...plus knowing your whereabouts.ExpectationsLeaders leaving a Sleep Point OR arriving at another Sleep Pointare expected to advise the Sleep Point Administration of their intentions and/or subsequent arrival. This is essentially a matter of common courtesy and part of the safety program in place to help protect our youth members.Interested in helping but don't know what you could do?Here are some of the jobs available. The Leader/Helper Registration Form has a place where you can indicate your preferences if you haven't already been allocated a job.
