Go Jamboree 2nd Annual Service Camp AKA Service and Social Camp AKA the Mystery Camp Last year Go Jamboree ran a Summer Service Camp (links to my blogs writeup) and we intend to do the same this year.
Location
It will most likely be an North London then South England based Campsite. GoJam membership does reach far and wide so if the majority of members are located somewhere we'll focus in that area. Campsite suggestions welcome .
Date
Please pick the BEST date to fit in with your schedule, and post any additional ones to this topic.

2-4th of july is also rally, For those that become IST for sweden its a weekend in walesby, and dragnet.
Some forums have the option to do a poll where you can select multiple options, possibly too late now, but is that not implemented here?, and if not, could it be. then we could just click when we're free.
From my perspective, I really cant say for this summer atm though...

If you do it at Thriftwood I should be able to pop in! But otherwise I highly doubt it
Kingston Ridge in Basildon is cheap, it's not London, but it's as good as I could pop there as well probably!

Traditionally camping fees are waved because we are doing work on their site.

The code on this forum is antiquated but at least it is secure. I started work on updating it last June-August but got distracted with paid projects in Sep-Dec, Jan and Feb have been paid work and personal projects. I do see it happening but there are other things more important in the shortrun :S. But trust me it will be awesome.
