Phone Policy for the Night:

Because we will be navigating a busy public area in the dark, we are requesting that all Scouts bring a fully charged mobile phone and downloaded Geocaching app. Please help scouts to create free account and login to the app.

Android phone here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.groundspeak.geocaching.intro&hl=en_AU

The phones will be used strictly as safety and navigation tools to run the Geocaching app and maintain contact with leaders.

All youth must arrive with a growth mindset, positive attitude, and willingness to cooperate.

Leaders will not tolerate disrespectful, unsafe, or uncooperative behaviour.

Every participant deserves a safe and enjoyable night.

Any youth displaying poor attitude may be sent home immediately and suspended or banned from future Scouting activities.
