Because the different age groups or sections in Scouting each participate in a different level of activity.

Keep in mind that a number of our groups will have a lot of shared gear to use but do not have enough equipment for individuals. Have a chat with your leader before your next camp to see what you might need, often you can get a number of cheap and convenient gear but investing in some good quality gear will last your Scout a lot longer!

Check out the Scout Outdoor Centre website for all your outdoor adventure needs.

Joeys need a few bits and pieces to show that they are Joey Scouts as well as a few things to set them up for an adventure!

These include:

A uniform shirt  (different sections have different colour sleeves)

A Dilly bag for sleepovers and camps

Water bottle

Other things that Joeys may need from time to time that can be borrowed from siblings or friends are things such as:

• Raincoat
• Comfortable backpack
• Things for a sleepover
• Things for a camp

All these things should be well labelled with the Joey’s name and if we are going to a District or State event label them with the Group name.
