Why The Big Adventure?
Would you like to recruit more adult volunteers?
Are you already planning a summer camp or event?
The Big Adventure is a great way to use your summer activity to encourage more parents and other adults into Scouting.
Why you should organise a Big Adventure
- Offering parents a defined role is an easy way to explain how they can easily volunteer and help the group.
- You may find someone who is happy to cook, book transport – or you could discover a qualified activity instructor.
- Combining the skills and time from a group of parents will create a fun-filled event.
- You'll showcase how volunteering makes a difference for our young people, in an informal environment.
- If parents take part in the organisation and running of a Big Adventure, your leaders will have more time to run the camp.
