What a fantastic weekend visiting Blair Atholl Jamborette in Blair Atholl, Scotland.
Held every two years since 1946, Blair is one of those events that is recognised by Scouts across đ´ó §ó ˘ó łó Łó ´ó ż. For many participants, itâs also their first real experience of World Scouting and the friendships, cultures and shared experiences that make it so special.
What makes Blair unique is its twinning model, where Scottish and international patrols live, work and adventure together for two weeks, creating friendships that will last a lifetime.
For those two weeks, a field in rural Scotland becomes a thriving town, complete with the facilities and infrastructure youâd expect â all planned, built and run by an incredible team of volunteers.
A huge thank you to every volunteer who not only gives up two weeks of their summer, but also the countless months of planning beforehand to make sure these young people have a safe, fun and unforgettable experience.
International experiences like Blair are one of the things that make Scouting so special. Looking back, the international events I attended as a young person played a huge role in shaping the leader I am today. Iâm sure many of this yearâs participants will look back on Blair in exactly the same way.
I hope you all have an amazing second week! đ
