Venturer Jamboree at Haliburton in 2012?

I heard that there may be a national Venturer jamboree in 2012 at the Haliburton Scout Reserve. Anybody have any information on this?

I heard the same rumour from HSR staff at check out time last Friday but without further details. My guys have already put it on their calendar -- they just need the dates

I asked two different people from National and neither had heard of this. It may be a provincial event but there's apparently no national event.

HSR says the contact at national is Ian Mitchell.

From Ian Mitchell:

Yes, we are considering a National Venturer Event for the summer of 2012. However, we are awaiting the final approval for the event. When, or if, we get the green light I would be more than happy to hear what your groups thoughts were on the concept. At the same time I would be very happy to hear from the Venturers themselves.

At this time we are in a holding pattern. As soon as we get the green light I will contact you and perhaps I can attend a meeting to speak to the event.

The meeting referenced is the Venturer Advisor Forum (http://web.ncf.ca/ad554/)in Ottawa.

If people have some thoughts or ideas, I would suggest sending them to Ian.

Interesting! One of the two people I asked is on the BOG and he hadn't heard of it! I wonder who they're waiting for approval from?
