Pack your bags, grab your Skautu šlipsas, and prepare for another epic Lithuanian Easter Scout Camp at Gillwell Park! Scouts from across Australia—Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane (and possibly a few lost ones from Sydney)—will be gathering for fours days of adventure, laughter, and just the right amount of Lithuanian spirit to keep us warm at night.Expect bushwalking (because we love getting "slightly" lost), orienteering (to find our way back), Easter egg painting (some will be artistic masterpieces, others... abstract disasters), laužai (bonfires big enough to be seen from space), and of course, Lithuanian lessons (where you’ll finally learn how to say more than just "Labas").
🌲✨ Why You Can't Miss It:
✅ Escape WiFi for a few days and embrace the great outdoors
✅ Learn survival skills (like how to toast bread on a stick without setting it on fire)
✅ Experience the joy of scouting with an amazing community
✅ Create memories that will last a lifetime... or at least until next Easter
Costs for the whole camp:
$250 for the whole camp
$200 for second family member
$150 for third family member
$100 for fourth and further family members
$0 for fifth members and beyond
Costs for nightly stay: $100 per night
