Leader Allocation

Thank you for ensuring that all our youth members have an incredible weekend at Boost. For the leaders assigned to an activity please plan to arrive at your designated activity location 20 minutes ahead of the scheduled start time, unless you have already been contacted by the activity team and alternate arrangements have been made. For those whose activities are off-site, please ensure that you are on the bus as scheduled. Your commitment and support are truly appreciated as we make this camp an unforgettable experience for our youth members.

Parking and Vehicle Guidelines

Cars staying on site must be parked in designated carparks by 11pm to avoid being towed by Police Scouters. Trailers can remain on-site if they are safely parked.

Lanyards

For security purposes, it is mandatory for all attendees to wear their lanyards at all times throughout the camp. If, for any reason, you or someone in your Unit misplaces their lanyard, please promptly proceed to administration at the Environment Centre for assistance.

Campfires and Fire Safety

Campfires are permitted, but you must bring a fire drum. Fires are not allowed to be lit on the ground.
Additionally, each campfire must have two methods of extinguishing e.g. an extinguisher and a sand bucket.

Code of Conduct
Please see our camp Code of Conduct here please make sure you are familiar with it. All adults are of course to adhere to the Scouts Victoria Adult Code of Conduct.

First Aid and Operoo

If any of your youth have anaphylaxis, please ensure they have at least two pens
While we're seeing more sunshine currently, we're also seeing an increase in asthma symptoms! The dry, dusty weather at Bay Park, combined with nature and the outdoors can have an impact. Please double check and update your Operoo to ensure that we have the most accurate information.
Asthma action plans should also be updated, and please make sure you have plenty of in-date medication to support any medical conditions. Including a spacer and Ventolin.
