Once at the park Scouts and explorers will be allowed to roam around the park in a minimum of 2s, we will require a contact number to contact each person in the park on the day and an emergency number for home contact. Each scout & explorer will be shown our meeting point that will be manned all day and will be expected to either report there at a specified time.
