Gilwell Park Junior Service Team

The Junior Service Team (JST) acts in the exact way as the regular service team on a campsite but is aimed at people aged between 14-18! The JST provide a volunteer service for Gilwell Park Scout Activity Centre and assist in the general maintenance of the campsite and assist in the running of several major events such as Cub and Beaver Fundays and working weekends!

So you want to volunteer as a JST member at Gilwell Park yes? It's really simple, all you've got to do is download the JST Membership Pack, fill it in and send it off, then, whenever a new event comes up, you'll be able to help out!!

If you get stuck, contact Jason, the B&D Junior Service Team Rep. and he will help you out!!

There are all kinds of things you can do from the worst things like cleaning toilets to the really fun things like the running of an activity, and loads in between!

You could be asked to do anything the regular service team do!!

What have we done?
The JST members from Barking & Dagenham have already volunteered at Gilwell Park Scout Activity Centre several times over the last year. We worked at the Cub & Beaver Fundays which was a lot of fun! We have also been on several working weekends where we helped with the site maintenance from silly little things like clearing guttering to welding alter fires back together!

2007 was a very good year for the Junior Service Team from Dagenham and we hope that 2008 will be an even better one!
