Cub Scout Synchronised Campfire - 10 September 2022

Cub Scouts all around Victoria will join their Unit, Group, District or Region for a synchronised campfire at 7pm on Saturday 10 September 2022. There will be hundreds of campfires across Victoria, with Cubs joining in with singing, skits, campfire cooking and general fun.

Cuboree - 25-29 September 2023

A Cuboree is a massive camp over five days and four nights, held every three years for Cub Scouts.

Cubs camp out with their Leaders and parent helpers, and engage in a challenging activity program plus night-time entertainment.

A Cuboree is like a Jamboree for Scouts, but, while Jamborees are national or international events, Cuborees are State-based.

Cuboree is one of the biggest Cub Scout events in the world. More than one hundred times bigger than a typical school camp.

Our next Cuboree will be at Gilwell during the September school holidays 2023.
