Sub Camps

There will be three sub camps at BrumJam 2012; your group will be allocated a sub camp in advance of their arrival. The sub camps will each have a main theme colour; red, white and blue and a name Zeus (Red), Hercules (White) and Poseidon (Blue). Each sub camp will also be split into two sub groups - Group A and Group B. This is to support the 6 different activities days.

Your sub camp will be your base for the duration of the camp and we hope that you will feel at home there! You will be able to experience a real Jamboree spirit, through living alongside other groups from all over the UK and abroad. Each sub camp will have a team of staff dedicated to maximising your enjoyment of the Jamboree event.

Opportunities on your sub camp might include:

Cooking a traditionally British meal for your foreign neighbours
Joining an international team to play cricket
Strutting your stuff at the sub camp Talent show
Taking part in crafts and theming of the sub camp
Meeting at "sub camp central" for a chill out with new friends

One of the days at camp will be a sub camp day. This will give you a chance to visit all the groups on the sub camp and host people visiting your site. We hope you will take the opportunity to share foods or traditions from your region. There will also be lots of activities to take part in with your new friends on the sub camp. In the morning, the sub camp team will host a mini–Olympics, with athletics, football, volleyball, gymnastics?! In the afternoon we hope everyone will join in a traditionally English theme with cream teas, stalls, croquet etc. The evening will finish with a pub quiz and skittles.
