It should be noted that BSO contributed a total of seven IST staff that provided a very significant contribution to the overall running of the Poacher Jamboree itself with our leaders undertaking a multitude of different functions including adult training, Kid’s Club, badge collecting, assisting with activities, security, transport administration and helping in the quiet/reflection zone.

Planning for the camp commenced in early 2016 with 67 registrations from across BSO (young people and adults). Registration for the camp was closed in early 2017. Seven leadership planning meetings were conducted using GoToMeeting online conferencing with the main contingent staff and IST teams invited to attend. These proved very useful for overall planning which ensured the overall success of the camp. We also delivered two online parent information meetings which were well attended and also recorded for parents that could not attend.

Prior to the camp, authorisation was sought from the BSO Executive for £4,000 financial support to purchase new camping and catering equipment which would allow BSO to camp with 50 persons. Most equipment was purchased with a significant discount from GoOutdoors. The full amount was spent on equipment. The shortfall of expendable items was purchased from Poacher fees paid by attendees which left us with a £205 shortfall. This could have been recovered if we returned our propane gas bottles at the end of camp. BSO was able to cover this amount meaning that gas bottles will not need to be purchased next time. All BSO camping equipment is stored at Berkshire Scout Enterprises Ltd (BSEL) close to Reading. Equipment was transported to/from Poacher by self-drive LWB van based almost adjacent to the campsite. This was cost-effective but meant that the driver had to travel to/from the hire centre by train and travel one direction empty. For the next camp it is recommended that fees are increased to enable a long-term rent covering the entire camp which would prevent exhausting, cost-saving measures like this.

All the purchased equipment was excellent quality but we are in need of a central mess tent which was borrowed from 41stCheltenham. it is recommended that BSO approves expenditure to purchase a second-hand gala tent which has been made available to us at a reduced price.
