Five GoodGymers were out and about bright and early on a Sunday morning to help the Jamboree clear down. After a lovely drive through the farmland we were tasked with helping clear out the Scout store ready for all the Jamboree equipment to be packed away. We chatted as we worked (obviously!). Andy and Fay discussed bad weather and over-priced burgers at festivals. Ben had an excellent tip about volunteering to get free entry. Richard had a result in acquiring some new towels.

Once the store was tidy we headed back to the ops hub for some drinks and delicious cake. Leanne had to rush off but the rest of us did another quick task collecting in the barriers around the car park before heading off home. Great work everyone.

Our group run this week will be a leaflet drop, hope to see you there.
