The majority of the Scouts and Guides who are pouring into Poacher today are here for their very first Poacher jamboree, but there are also plenty of veterans on site who have attended our jamboree in the past. For some, such as Adrian Robson of T-Rex ESU, their first Poacher was in 2017. Now camping on the Wonder Fest subcamp, he returns “looking forward to the activities I couldn’t do last time” such as the Subaqua diving school.
Poacher 2022 has a unique queue busting ticket system. When you arrive, you will be given a shiny new lanyard with two tickets per day clipped on, one for the morning activities and one for the afternoon activities. A ticket will guarantee you access to the corresponding activity during the designated slot. There are over 150 activities on offer, such as African Drums, Go Karting, Kayaking and Sailing. If you don’t have a ticket, don’t worry! The system is flexible with the option of queuing to fill up spaces as they become available. If your friend has a ticket for an activity which you would love to try, that’s great, you can swap! Your subcamp HQ also has a Swap Shop open daily where you can trade your tickets and build your Adventure of a Lifetime.

Like many of our staff, Jam Fm were onsite yesterday setting up. They have spent some time finding out all you need to know on arrivals, staying safe and the important news - how hard is the ground!? In today's Jam FM update.

It's arrivals day. Have you ever wondered what it takes to prepare the Jamboree site for 5,500 young people ready for the adventure of a lifetime?
Today marks the end of National Volunteers' Week 2022!
*APRIL FOOLS* We apologise if you have booked your tickets and were already planning on seeing Kangaroos and Koala Bears, as Poacher 2022 will be back at its home of the Lincolnshire Showground, UK!
Now the borders have re-opened, we’ve decided to turn Poacher 2022 upside down and have made a massive decision to re-locate….so Poacher 2022 is now going to be held in Port Lincoln, Australia!
There's a long tradition of group gateways at Jamborees, and especially at Poacher.
