We're going on a Scout Camp! - the UK's only scouting board game.
PRE-ORDER NOW and get your initials on the game board.
I've invented a great new board game with a scouting theme and now it needs you.
Put your initials on the world's first scout-themed board game board - for ever.
Play the world's first scout-themed board game! The aim* is to pack a rucksack and get to camp where you will meet Horace Horrise mischievous scout in the mess tent. But BEWARE! There are plenty of pitfalls to avoid on the way.
The prototype for We're going on a Scout Camp! has been tested on a few scout groups and they love it! So that's that then; it's going ahead. We're going on a Scout Camp! will go into production during the summer and be out in time for eek Christmas 2025.
"So where do I come in?" you may ask.
Sponsor one of the rucksacks on the board that form part of the game by branding it with your initials, or those of a relative, friend etc. It would make a great birthday / eek Christmas present. I will add the initials (maximum three letters) to one of the rucksacks on the game board where they will stay FOREVER!
Alternatively you can pre-order now without any initials.
We're going on a Scout Camp! will retail for at least £29.99 plus p&p. Put your order in now (with or without initials) and pay for your copy of the game. This will not only fix the price for you at £29.99 and no p&p (no p&p UK only) but it will also enable you to get your chosen initials added. However...hurry. There are only 36 rucksacks to be branded and 12 have already been taken!
You will receive your copy of We're going on a Scout Camp! as soon as it is published. Your game will be signed, with an acknowledgement of your contribution included if you would like.

*About the game: We’re Going on a Scout Camp!
Get ready for an action-packed adventure as you race to be the first scout to set up at camp. In We’re Going on a Scout Camp!, players must pack their rucksack with essential gear and navigate the twists and turns of Rucksack Lane. But the challenge doesn’t stop there - once at camp, you’ll need to transfer your items to your tent while tackling the tricky Tent Lane!
Watch out for unexpected obstacles and mischievous mayhem, because lurking in the mess tent is Horace Horrise, the cheeky scout who’s always up to no good! Will you reach the mess tent first and prove your scouting skills, or will Horace throw a spanner in your well-laid plans?
A fun-filled race of strategy, luck, and laughter - perfect for adventurers of all ages!
I look forward to hearing from you.
