I am not allowed to tell anyone on social media or anything but my wee girl just got accepted for the World Scout Jamboree in South Korea in 2023!

After a slightly restricted selection process out of hundreds that applied. Had to tell someone or I will burst with pride.

Fair play Gavin! Good for her!

Good for her.

Although it’s Squid Game really isn’t it?

Congrats!

Nice one Gavin, that should be a proper adventure for her!

What an experience that will be for her - amazing!

What an epic experience that'll be, and what an adventure to have to look forward to


Edit; just seen the previous two posts

Big congrats, we’ve got some from my group going through selection at the moment.

I never got to go to one in my time as a scout and now as an adult leader unfortunately don’t have the time to devote to jamboree stuff, but I know several who have been and they all say it’s a great experience.

Congratulations to her!

Love the fact this doesn’t count as social media

That's great. Well done!! South Korea is a great place too. I had a week in Seoul on business and loved it. People are really nice and very generous/kind. She'll have a great time.

It's antisocial media and always has been!

Congratulations mini-Gavin!

What the hell, I only got to the east of England showground

Nicely done, that will be an amazing memory to have!!

Dave!

That's awesome!

That's amazing. Wonderful for her to have something like that to focus on and look forward to

Well done. There's probably a small clause in the forum rules that dictates you have to buy her an MX5 now.

Hahahaha

It’s a trap Gavin, don’t let her go!

Fantastic!

Cheers guys, still in the surreal stage for her at the moment, only £4k to raise now......

Well done! Hope she enjoys it immensely.
