Comments for Jambo Makobe http://scouts-southwestscotland.org.uk/kenyablog The South West Scotland Regional Scouts Project to Makobe, Kenya, 2011 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 11:11:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Comment on About the Project by Iainmat http://scouts-southwestscotland.org.uk/kenyablog/#comment-40 Iainmat Tue, 21 Jun 2011 11:11:05 +0000 http://scouts-southwestscotland.org.uk/kenyablog/?page_id=2#comment-40 As my grandchilren say - only four sleeps to go!! Its getting closer by the minute. Last minute packing and panicking about what to take - not to take, and last minute preparations. But all goin to plan. The weather out there is hot hot hot so not too much in the way of fleeces or warm sweaters please - none are needed apart from the climbers. Remember malaria tablets and start taking them in advance as required. We're going to have a ball. I think this will be the best Scout camp you ever get to stay at so do enjoy the experience to the max. After months of working on it and planning it I'm looking forward to living it. See you all on the train - don't miss it!! We'll move around in our Makobe project work groups so no-one gets mislaid between the train and Mombasa so look after your project leader and he/she will look after you!!
