Pre-Jamboree Camp Oct 2015
On the last weekend in Oct, Scouts and Leaders from troop A218 attending the Australian Jamboree at Cataract in January 2016 converged at Cobargo showgrounds for the Pre-Jamboree camp. The aim of the weekend was an information session, team building exercise, getting to know everyone, and how to put up the patrol tents for the Jamboree.

Grampar's silver Koala award - September 2016
Graham was awarded the Silver Koala. This award is presented to adult Members for at least 14 years of distinguished service to the Scout Association, although I am pretty sure he has been in Scouting for a lot longer than that. Congratulations Grampar
