Organised by 3rd Hayling Scout GroupIn Summer 2023, two of our Scouts will be representing Hayling at the 25th World Scout Jamboree in SaeManGeum, Korea. At the same time, two Scouts will also be attending Project 23, a major international expedition across Europe.
The two Scouts from Hayling are part of 3,240 young people that have been selected from the UK to join 50,000 young people taking part in the World Scout Jamboree. The Jamboree is a skills, cultural and adventure festival happening in sensational and scenic South Korea. In the summer of 2023, they will be meeting thousands of Scouts from nearly every country in the world sharing their skills and learning from others. This will be the first time that so many young people from so many different nations will be gathering together since the Covid-19 pandemic began.
The World Scout Jamboree offers young people the chance to learn new skills that they can use in other aspects of their life as well as campaign for change on key world issues that matter to them.
Between now and July 2023, the two Hayling Scouts will attend training camps and team building events preparing them for living on the hot and humid site in SaeManGeum, Korea.
Project 23 is a three week expedition to travel through Europe by coach, stopping at number of Scout campsites to undertake scouting type activities, meeting Scouts from other countries, sightseeing, other adventurous activities and some pure fun activities.
The Scouts are aiming to stay in at least three different countries. It should be an amazing 3 weeks. It is run as a sister expedition to the Hampshire Scouts World Scout Jamboree units for those not able to attend the WSJ.
