🚨Important Moot UpdatePost #1
Today, the CBR Moot Team met with ACT Emergency Services to discuss the viability of CBR Moot continuing at Camp Cottermouth.
Due to the ongoing potential fire danger, current weather and local emergency service resources, CBR Moot has made the tough and unfortunate decision to cancel the final phase, Activities, 6-11 Jan 2020.
CBR Moot will still be holding a Closing Ceremony on the 5th Jan 2020, details to be confirmed shortly.
CBR Moot Team will be providing further details this afternoon.
If you have any questions, please contact your Contingent Leader in the first instance or email, info@cbrmoot.scouts.com.au
The CBR Moot Team appreciate your support and understanding during this time.
Learn By Doing
Rover Scouts is open all young adults aged 18-25. It is all about adventure, excitement, challenge and achievement. No previous scouting experience required!
Rovers function in crews. A crew is a small collection of around 6 – 20 Rovers who engage in a self-managed weekly program. Crew members become mates for life!
A Rover Scout calendar may include challenging outdoor activities such as caving, sailing, four-wheel driving, hot-air ballooning and ski-touring. In addition the calendar is full of balls, harbour cruises, motor-sports, etc.
Moots are the pinnacle Rover event. A moot is a social gathering of Rovers from throughout a state, national or international with the focus of a few weeks of fun, adventure and sharing of life experiences. These too are run and managed by Rovers!
