ScotJam Scouts 2023

About the event

ScotJam 2023 is returning for another summer of incredible outdoor adventures, offering incredible residential experiences for Cubs & Scouts at Scout Adventures Lochgoilhead.

ScotJam 2023: Scouts – Sat 15th to Sat 22nd July 2023

ScotJam 2023: Cubs – Mon 24th to Fri 28th July 2023

We promise lots of fun, outdoor adventures and badges. Cubs and Scouts will spend the week exploring the forest, hills and water surrounding the Scouts Adventures Lochgoilhead centre - participating in a wide range of activities including climbing, abseiling and paddle sports. All activities will be led by professional qualified instructors, and the young people will be looked after by an experienced volunteer team.

Both Cubs and Scouts will be sleeping indoors and will enjoy three nutritious meals a day from the professional on-site catering team.

 

What to Expect?

Loads of opportunities to try new activities and achieve badges.

Lots of fresh air and outdoor adventure.

Meet new people and make new friends. 

Here’s what people had to say about their experience last year …

I had so much fun, I liked the badge programme. It was great to try so many activities. The Burn Run as my favourite. (Scout)

It is truly fantastic how much you pack into the week - keeping the children engaged from morning to night. Lots of things they hadn't done before, a sense of satisfaction of working towards badges, lots of fun. (Parent / Carer)
