BP Guild’s (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) services at the 14th Goodwill Camporee

BP Guild’s (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) services at the 14th Goodwill Camporee (see photos) has been very much appreciated by all volunteers and participants. We started by serving drinks to volunteers and due the shortage of water in the camp we were supplying drinking water to all participants. They were even willing to pay for the water. All this was made possible by Sdr. Calvin got his friend Mr.Ong of Ong Pure Water Store to donate 25 gallon bottles for to use with two dispensers. We are the only free water point in the Camporee*.

We also purchased 20 tents which were sponsored by Dato Richard Wong to be used by the participants. We also like to thanks our members who donated cash that helped us to support 9 scouts to assist us in the services. They helped out in making coffee and tea that was provided free to visitors coming to our booth.

We also made many contacts with Scout Leaders all around Malaysia. Many of them have not heard of BP Scout Guild or the Scout Fellowship. We hope that they would be able to promote Guilds in their areas.
