About the Challenge. . .
What is Jay's Big Adventure?

Mission Brief:

Jay your mission is as follows:

* Meet at least one representative from every Scout Group in the UK
* Shake their left hand
* Relieve them of one of their groups name tapes
* Affix the collected name tapes to a banner or flag
* Raffle off the Name Tape Flag, for the NSPCC and the Scout Association


Reader, your mission is as follows: * Invite Jay to meet you at your group/county/district event/meeting
* If you spot her on the street, (please shout her first... Don't accost members of the public!) say hello then forward on your name tape via post
* Join the facebook group/ Twitter page to keep up to date with the challenge
* REMEMBER most importantly.... tell all your scouting friends and associates, even the people at District who you generally don't get on with about the cause


This mission will self destruct if not stored properly....





F.A.Q:

What is a name tape?
A name tape is a small woven ribbon which gives the troop/group name of the Scout group that you are associated with. This tape is usually sewn to the right hand sleeve of your Scout shirt

Are you Seriously going to to this?
Yes!

Are you limiting your search to Scout Association Groups?
NO, it is true that most of my focus will be on SA groups, as this is the association that I am personally involved in... BUT I will not turn anyone who wants to meet me away, be they Baden Powell Scouts, or Boy Scouts of America stationed within the UK, providing someone wants to meet me, I'm happy to meet you!

Can you accept postal name tapes?
YES BUT ONLY if I have met you and shook you by the hand... For example if you have collared me in the street, and have been caught short without a name tape.

Are you flexible with your beverage/biscuit specifications?
YES, I will even suffer milk in my tea providing you make it strong enough, other welcome drinks include... Hot squash, Coffee... Cold beer... Wine (not red), a GOOD glass of whiskey... I am also parshal to BaraBrith, Jaffa cakes, and anything that has sugar in it!
