THE CAMPSITE When the registration has closed, all registered scout groups will be placed on the campsite in clusters of 3 to 4 scout groups. The clusters will be arranged so that one or two foreign scout groups will be placed with two Danish scout groups. This enables Danish and foreign scout groups to get to know and mix within each other. If your scout group wishes to camp close to another specific scout group, please inform us under Comments in your registration form. All scout groups will be informed about the camp arrangements in the information letter that will be sent out in June, when the registration has been closed. Other than individual campsites, there will be a number of common camp areas at the disposal of all scout groups. There are some campsite rules and conditions that every scout group must comply with, when planning the setup of their camp. Further details are explained below. THE LAWN The city of Aarhus (from whom we are renting the site) has prohibited any digging in the lawn on which our campsite is placed. This gives us a few challenges that we have to be aware of, which we will try to elaborate on in the next paragraphs. All participants have to pay attention not to spoil the lawn, as we have to pay for the restoration. CAMPFIRE It will not be possible to dig turfs in the lawn to build a fireplace. All fireplaces have to be built either as a raised fireplace or placed directly on the lawn. Upon your arrival at the Jamboree there will be big oil barrels and sand available for each scout group, with which a fireplace can be built. If you wish to arrange your fireplace in a different manner, you have to arrange relevant materials yourself. PIONEERING Materials for pioneering have to be ordered in advance at the registration or be arranged by the scout group themselves. Besides ordered spars, there will only be very few spars for sale at the Jamboree. Pioneering constructions must be made in such a way that they don’t dig into the ground. This will most likely require a few extra spars to provide good stability. Sisal for lashings must also be ordered when registering and can only be bought in limited amounts at the Jamboree. See section on Ordering of campsite materials for more information. 2ND INFO PACKAGE ON SØ’15 April 2015 7/12 THE CAMPSITE CONTINUED CAMPERS AND CARAVANS ELECTRICITY PAVILIONS THE STAGE There will be a designated area in the marina for those who wish to live in campers or caravans.

If you wish to live in a camper or caravan during the Jamboree, you will need to contact the Administration to make specific arrangements. There will be placed electricity pavilions on the campsite where participants will have access to 220 V power. It is regrettably not possible to extend electricity directly to each camp on the campsite. All joint events, including the opening and closing ceremonies, will take place at the stage, which is at the heart of the campsite. COLD STORAGE The T-borg for this age group will be placed on a central spot on the campsite. Besides activities for the age group 8-16, the T-borg is designed to be a social area where participants in this age group can hang out and mix across individual scout groups. BUSES, CARS AND TRAILERS There will be a parking lot designated for buses, cars and trailers brought to the Jamboree. The parking lot will not be locked or supervised, though it is close to both the campsite and the area designated for campers and caravans. Cooling containers with sufficient cold storage will be available for each scout group. Further information regarding usage and accessibility will be provided upon your arrival at the Jamboree.

Lunch will be provided by the Jamboree on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. The farewell dinner will also be served by the Jamboree on Monday, August 3rd. In order to facilitate grocery shopping for all scout groups, special arrangements have been made. Details on these arrangements will be available in the Information Letter, which will be send out in June. On the right side of this page you will find information on nearby shops and supermarkets. GAS FOR COOKING At the moment we have not been able to get the necessary permission to use gas to cook food on the campsite, though we are trying to make this possible. If we succeed, we will inform all participating scout groups so that you can bring gas cooking equipment if you wish. Until then, all food will have to be cooked over a fireplace. INSPIRATION FOR GOOD FOOD At Sø’15 we would like participants to be aware of good food and avoid excessive waste of food. We are therefore preparing some inspiration material that will be available on our website, which you can use for inspiration when planning your breakfast and dinner menus. Food bought by the Jamboree will be bought according to this information. On the campsite there will be a leftover food tent set up, where you can bring any form of leftovers for others to enjoy. You will be provided with more information regarding this upon your arrival at the Jamboree. SHOPPING POSSIBILITIES AND ARRANGEMENTS The Jamboree has made special arrangements with a few local supermarkets, which will offer a handful of products for a good »sea scout price«, in order for everyone to serve healthy food on the table. It will be possible to pre-order food, which the supermarket will pack up for you to pick up at the checkout counter. In this way all scout groups can save time from their shopping of basic groceries. There will be more on this in the Information Letter in June 2015.

Here it is possible to either register as a scout group, as a single person who is not part of any participating scout group, or as a volunteer. In the following you can read about the three kinds of registration. SCOUT GROUP REGISTRATION To register a scout group, go to english.soe15.dk/ registration. Here you will find a link that leads you to the online registration form that must be filled in with specific details about the scout group. After you have filled in and submitted the online registration form, an email with login information, will be sent within 5 workdays to the email address mentioned in the scout group registration form. With this login, it is possible to access the »Scout Group Page« in the registration system. No later than the 1st of June all scout groups must enter the following information in the registration system: • • • • Information on the scout group The individual participants The individual boats Orders of campsite materials Below we will explain how to provide us and keep track of this information. INFORMATION ON THE SCOUT GROUP Features: • Changing/updating contact information of the scout group Explanation: The first time you login to your Scout Group Page in the registration system, you have to update all information on your scout group. Some information might be filled in automatically from the pre-registration. It is very important that all information is accurate, as we will need it to get in contact with you. We need information on two contact persons, and for one financial reference (typically your treasurer or whoever is responsible for the payment of your participation fee). PARTICIPANTS OF THE SCOUT GROUP Features: • Link for online registration form • Overview of registered participants • Ability to edit registered participants Explanation: All scout group participants must register by filling in the online registration form, as indicated on the Scout Group Page. We suggest you do it in one of the following ways: Send the link for the online registration form out to all participants of your scout group and their parents, so that they can fill it in at home. If you choose this option, we suggest you give a deadline to your participants for when the form has to be filled in. This deadline should be before registration closes, for example May 15th. In this way you will have plenty of time to check on all of your participants, that they are correctly registered and that all forms are complete before June 1st, as registration closes. Set up a computer at a meeting with your scout parents and walk through the registration form with them. One by one the parents can register their child/children. The advantage of this option is, that you can answer questions, meanwhile you ensure that everyone complete their registration. The registration form for participants is set up this way that every single participant has to fill it in themselves, as it is of high importance for us to have accurate information on every single participant about relatives, allergies or illnesses. In this way we can ensure a high level of safety for participants at the Jamboree and we are able to supply our mess crew with needed information about special diets or food allergies. When you have received all registrations from your participants, we advise you to review them all to make sure that no information is missing and that they are all properly registered. Pay special attention to the number of days that your participants have signed up for, as this will affect the participation fee your scout group will be charged. Important about Age Groups: We operate with three age groups. Make sure all your participants are correctly registered in the age group they belong to. The actual age of the participant is not important for which age group the participant is placed in. Your leaders have to decide which age group each of your participants belongs to. On the Jamboree, age groups will be used to differentiate between sections, i.e. regarding activities and access for the adult off duty area. This means, you have to decide whether your 15, 16 or 17 years old participant belongs to either the age group 1216 or 16-23, and if your 11, 12 or 13 year old participant belongs to either the age group 8-12 or 12-16. BOATS OF THE SCOUT GROUP Features: • Link for online boat registration form • Overview of registered boats • Ability to edit registered boats Explanation: All boats must be registered by filling in the online registration form, as indicated on the Scout Group Page, regardless of whether the boat belongs to the scout group or it is privately owned by one of your participants. It is important for the Jamboree to know which and how many boats are participating in relation to vacant moorings and contingency plans. The registration form for boats is set up this way that you have the possibility to share the link with your boat responsible leader(s) in your scout group. You may also choose to fill in the registration form for all boats yourself – you can choose whichever option is easier for you. Please indicate for each boat if it can be used for activities and if you have any fixed skippers. Likewise, please indicate one contact person for each boat, who will participate at the Jamboree. We will call this person in case of any concerns about the boat. Please note that any fixed skippers or boat contact persons must be registered as participants, before you register your boat. You can constantly add, modify and delete the number of boats registered via the Sea Scout Group page in the registration system. However, 2ND INFO PACKAGE ON SØ’15 April 2015 it is important that you have entered the final number of boats before June 1st, since the people who are planning activities need to know how many boats are available. ORDERS OF CAMPSITE MATERIALS BY EACH SCOUT GROUP Features: • Link for online order of campsite materials • Overview of orders • Ability to edit orders Explanation: As mentioned in the information package, it will be possible for all scout groups to order campsite materials for the Jamboree. The ordered materials will be ready at the campsite upon your arrival on Tuesday, July 28. The online form for orders is set up this way that you can choose to share the link with other leaders in your scout group, so i.e. each section can make their own order of materials. In this way you avoid one single person to take care of all the ordering of materials needed by your entire scout group. It does not matter if you choose to make a single or multiple material orders, your scout group will in any case be charged for the total amount of ordered materials at once. Our technical crew guarantees only to deliver ordered materials that have been ordered before registration closes on June 1st. Each scout group will receive a summary of the materials they have ordered before the start of the Jamboree. SINGLE PERSON REGISTRATION If you wish to register for the Jamboree but don’t have a scout group to participate with, then just fill out the corresponding registration form that 12/12 can be found on english.soe15.dk/registration. Once you have completed the form, you will receive a confirmation email of your registration within five workdays.
