| Some general words… | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The CARPATHIA 2001 is the 6th International Jamboree of Central and Eastern European Scouts and Guides. As a continuation of the international camps initiated as Slav Scouts Jamborees in 1931 (Prague, Czechoslovakia) and 1935 (Spala, Poland), then continued after the war by Fenix 1997 (Prague, Czech Republic), Eurocor 1998 (Žarovica, Slovakia) and SAN 1999 (Sanok, Poland), this year it is organised by the Hungarian Scout Association. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| When will it be and where? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The campsite is located in the green forest environment of the Pilis mountains, close to the town of Szentendre, near the village of Csobánka, about 20 kilometres north from Budapest. The camp's date is 13.-22. august 2001, with the participants having to arrive until 1600 of the first day, and can leave at 900 of the last day. If they wish to, participating troops are free to remain at the site after the camp, in this case they will have to organise food and programme for themselves. (Our association can find Hungarian troops who might help in this as a part of an international co-operation project - please inform us as soon as possible if You'd like to use this possibility). Troops arriving before the official time (on Sunday evening) are asked to announce that previously. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Who can take part? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Participants can be scouts and guides from
the invited associations, aged between 14-21 years (young participants)
and 18+ years (patrol and troop leaders), registered previously.
Scouts and guides not registered as participants can visit the camp any day between 9-18h, if they arrive in scout / guide uniform and connect the camp reception for a special visitors' ID card. One person can stay at the camp as visitor maximum two times. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| About the programme | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The camp's programme will consist of three
big elements: common programmes for all the participants (such as the opening
and closing ceremonies, the cultural festival and the closing party), subcamp
programmes (subcamp day, camp rituals, campfires etc.), and the "modular"
programme, which is centered on the five programme days on a rotational
basis, and is composed of two kinds of programmes: the in-site activities
and the all-day out-site programmes.
Programme scheme
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Subcamp Day | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| This day the programme will be centred on the subcamps, so the participating troops can get known each other in the beginning, through a series of games and group activities, including the formation of international patrols. The troops are asked to prepare some community games that can be played in a multilingual environment, as well as some typical food of their country / region that they can prepare for the event, as there will also be a gastronomy presentation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Modular Programme | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| During the five programme days the subcamps will take part in the modular programme on a rotational basis. The four programme modules are: sightseeing and competitions in Budapest (1 subcamp), hike in the Pilis mountains (1 subcamp), sightseeing and competitions in Visegrád (1 subcamp), and ticketed activities (2 subcamps), including the "Medieval Village" (with a great variety of handicraft workshops), the Action Centre (survival, archery, rock climbing, caving, different sports etc.), the Water Base (canoeing on the Danube, sailing on a roman galeon etc.), the "Exploring Nature" block (environment track, orienteering, short hikes etc.), a number of walk-in activities (exhibitions, movies, Internet, badge making, workshops etc.) and the Miscellaneous Things (including guided tours to interesting places of the area, community service, radio amateur activities, horse-riding and some really crazy surprises). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cultural Festival | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| For this event we'd like to ask the participating contingents to prepare a short cultural presentation (about 5-15 minutes), showing some aspect of their countries' cultural heritage (such as a dance choreography, music, songs, theatre etc.) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| General information | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Transportation: Participants will
have to make their own way to the campsite, which is accessible by the
means of public transport from Budapest by suburban railway (HÉV, departing
from Budapest - Batthyány tér station towards Szentendre, to the station
of Pomáz) and local bus service (Pomáz - Csobánka. Direct bus services
run from Budapest Árpád Híd bus station to Csobánka). Camp staff members
will wait for the participants at Pomáz rail station and guide them to
the campsite. In the case of arriving by Your own vehicles, please inform
us in advance, as there is limited parking space at the campsite. In the
next information pack in April we'll send a detailed bus and rail timetable
concerning traffic in these lines.
Insurance: The troop and / or patrol leaders are requested to arrange personal insurance for all the members of the unit. In the camp there will be medical assistance and security service, but we can't take responsibility for disappeared belongings left unattended at the camp. Communication: The camp's official languages will be English and Hungarian, therefore the troop and patrol leaders should be able to speak one of these two languages at least in a basic level. In the subcamp staffs and the Information Centre there will also be people speaking most of the local languages (including Polish, Romanian, Slovak, Czech, Russian and Serbian-Croatian), however we can't guarantee that all of You will be instructed in your mother tongue. Camp life regulations: Participants
can leave the camp area only with permission, and of course during the
programme events. In the camp and during the out-site programmes as well,
everybody will have to wear the camp identity card. The camp's daily routine,
especially the waking hour, the meal times and the night silentium will
be taken seriously. Alcohol and drugs are forbidden at the camp, smoking
is possible only for adults at the determined areas. The unit leaders will
be responsible for the actions of the unit members.
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What to bring? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Contingents are asked to prepare
the cultural presentation together, as described above. There will also
be possibility to arrange a national stand, with a material about Your
country and Your association (pictures, posters, books, music, promotion
and information brochures etc.), which should be visited by the participants
as a walk-in activity. (Details of the stand area will be given in the
next information pack in April.) Associations are welcome to bring and
run some sort of activities with their own staff and equipment, in this
case please contact us as soon as possible. The contingents are asked to
bring a national flag of 2m x 1m size for the central camp gathering place.
We'd like each contingent to designate one person to be their press correspondent (taking part in the work of the camp newspaper redaction team). Units are asked to bring with themselves tents to accommodate all the members (unfortunately there will be no possibility to hire tents at the site), a national flag of their country to be presented at the subcamp, and some typical food of their country / region for the subcamp day's gastronomy presentation. We'd like to ask one person in each troop to prepare a short language-course of their language, and to prepare some simple folk dance of their country (with music on CD or MC) that they should teach to the others at the subcamp day. We ask the troops as well to "bring" a lot of games, songs etc., that they can teach to the others on the subcamp day and during the whole camp. Participants will have to bring their
own sleeping bags and mattresses, scout / guide uniforms, documents (passports
and - if possible - international student ID-cards), small backpacks for
hikes, plates, cups and cutlery (pots won't be needed), water containers
and the general scout equipment needed in a normal camp. (Torches, pocket-knives,
matches, rope, pen and paper etc.)
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Accommodation, subcamps | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The participants should take part on the
event in 20-member troops, consisting of two 10-member patrols and one
troop leader. Smaller units are possible, but the bigger ones will have
to split for two smaller ones.
The troops will be accommodated in five subcamps, mixed by nationality, but the troop's patrols camping in the same place. |
