Joey Scouts are invited to attend OneCamp 2026 for three nights from Wednesday 15 April till Saturday 18 April. A coach will collect metropolitan Joey Scouts from designated pick-up points across Perth on Wednesday morning and return them to the same point on Saturday afternoon. Travel for Joey Scouts based in regional Western Australia may be on Tuesday 14 April and Sunday 19 April 2026.
Joey Scouts will camp in a OneCamp Unit, consisting of other youth members and adult Leaders from their Scout Group and at least one other Scout Group.
Program elements
Joey Scouts will tackle five onsite program elements during the OneCamp 2026 experience.
Outdoor Adventure Skills Zones
