Oops!!!

A few technical issues have seen us off air for a time. Have faith, we have an excellent crew who will have us back again soon!
We had to go a bit more high tech this year
to enable us to get JOTI underway.

Lucky we have an abseil instructor and a sparky on the crew!

JOTI underway


Big changes for this year's JOTI. Our usual location was not available due earthquake damage and we are in a good part of town! Finding a new location proved difficult as everyone is looking for undamaged locations for their regular events. Here we retro-fitting our Scout Hall for wireless internet access - going real high-tech as Ruru perches in the rafters mounting the gear.

joti time again

thanks to bishopdale harewood scouts for another great joti camp

Another year of online mayhem

here we are again - pc's set up and kids typing away - all ready for Scouting to chat on IRC network. - In line with no sleep - plenty of pizza and other junk food and hopefully many new connections with scouts from all over the world.
Lets just hope we will not have another earthquake - we had to many already!

Pics will follow soon
