Offering opportunities for as many to experience an adventure of a lifetime is central to everything that Poacher International Jamboree is about. 

Our next generation of Poacherians are the Rainbows, Brownies, Beavers and Cubs of our organisations, these members will be the ones who get to experience our next Poacher after Poacher 2022!

To introduce them to Poacher, we offer members aged between 5-10 years old and who are part of the three organising counties – Girlguiding Lincolnshire North, Guiding Lincolnshire South and Lincolnshire Scouts to take part in Junior Poacher!

The theme for this years, Junior Poacher is Festival of Colour and look forward to colouring the Lincolnshire Showground in lots of different colours. All the activities on offer for the Junior Poacher participants will be within the heart of the main jamboree.

We’ve worked hard to ensure that your younger members will really experience the flavour of the event, along with getting to explore the site, visit where everyone is camping and even get to pop to the jamboree shop.

All participants will receive a badge and a certificate for participating. 

This year’s Junior Poacher is running slightly different to previous years. We will be holding Junior Poacher over four days of the Jamboree, instead of the previous one day. The days Junior Poacher is running are: Monday 1st August- Thursday 4th August 2022. On each day there is a maximum capacity of 500 young participants, this number does not include leaders and young leaders.

Back in Poacher 2017, here’s what some of the Junior Poacher participants had to say about it:

“Everything is so cool and the big slides are really fun. We can’t wait for the next Poacher so we can be here for the whole week!”

“On every camp I’ve been to there hasn’t been a fairground, this is the first time. It is epic!”

We can’t wait to welcome back our Junior Poacher participants and for them to make memories and have a colourful adventure of a lifetime!
