Water and Off Site Activities
Based off-site (with the exception of canoeing)
you will have the opportunity to take part in
some more adventurous activities, or have
a go at a water activity such as kayaking,
sailing, rafting or power boating.
Day Visit
This will be an opportunity for your Group to
take a trip to see one of the local attractions
such as the Imperial War Museum at Duxford
or Colchester Zoo, do a spot of shopping
and see the sights in historic Cambridge, or
just take time to chill out and relax at a day
at the seaside.
Incident Challenge
This activity will help you see the site and
meet new friends on the way. In small teams
you will make your way to bases around the
site (don’t worry - it’s not too much walking)
and take part in a variety of team challenges
that will tax, challenge and entertain you.
It's A Knockout
Each Sub Camp will have an opportunity
to have a huge It’s A Knockout competition
during the Jamboree. Competing in teams
on a variety of crazy and exciting challenges,
you’ll have to be ready to shout, scream,
cheer... and get wet!
