JOTA/JOTI 2018 - VK4ADC - 15-07-2018
Registration for JOTA JOTI 2018 now open
The time has come for registration of each Scout Group for the largest Scouting event of the year. Registration can be done at the worldwide site www.jotajoti.info/sign-up-jota-joti-2018/ Registration for this years JOTA/JOTI event provides your Group access to the International Jamboree page. You will be able to see at a glance, all the registered stations from around the world, and take part in the largest Scout event to be held each year. This also gives you the opportunity to contact other stations around the world before the event and setup a dedicated time etc. to make the contact. Start planning your event now!
Your National JOTA JOTI coordinator can assist you with getting in touch with one of the local Scout Groups. Its not difficult to setup an event at your local Scout Hall. All you need is a couple of Cubs and Scouts and a Scouter or two to organise the weekend.
No need to run the entire weekend either; you choose what days to run according to your groups schedule. The busiest times are on the Saturday.
Brett Nicholas VK2BNN is Scouts Australia National co-ordinator for JOTA. Lorraine OHare VK2FICQ is Girl Guides Australia National JOTA-JOTI Co-ordinator.
