Brief Summary:
A fun day out and about, walking to help raise funds for your group!
Additional Information

You are invited to take part in our Region Walk-a-thon and help raise money for your Scout Group while having fun and working on your Achievement Pathway.

All participants will earn a special event badge!
 

Before the event

  1. Complete the registration form on Scout Event (closes 8th September). 
    Check with your leader if they are registering you, or if you should register separately.
    • Select which location you will be attending:
      • Bungarribee Park, Blacktown
      • Werrington Lake Reserve, Werrington
    • Select which category applies to you:
      • Participant (if you plan to get sponsors and walk to raise money for your group)
      • Participant Support (if you plan to walk but not get sponsors or raise money, e.g. Leaders supporting Youth members on the walk)
      • Location Support (if you would like to assist the site coordinator at the location)
  2. Ask family and friends to sponsor you and complete your Sponsorship Card (available to download/print from Scout Event or ask your leader)
     

On the day

You will need to bring…

  • A small backpack
  • Your Sponsorship Card
  • Water bottle
  • Snacks
  • Lunch
  • Sunblock
  • Wear Scout Shirt and Scarf, comfortable clothing, suitable shoes and a sun hat


Please make sure that your name is on everything, so lost property can be returned to you.

The Walk-a-thon starts at 9am but you can start walking anytime, as long as you complete your walk before 2pm. How long you want to walk is entirely up to you - the more distance covered, the more money you raise for your Group.

Your water bottle can be topped up at the registration tent, throughout the day. The Region First Aid Team will be on duty.

Your family is invited along to support you, participate or just have a fun day out in the park.
 

After the event

Collect money from your sponsors and hand to your leader, along with your Sponsorship Card at your next unit meeting.
