Final check-ins before the convoy heads north
Today is muster day for our Uluru expeditioners, which means Bundoora Scout Hall has turned into a very organised pile of bags, checklists, nerves, and excited faces. Scouts and Venturers are checking in, leaders are counting things twice, and the buses are sitting out the front waiting for tomorrow’s big push north.
Everyone knows this trip will be big. The road is long, the days will be full, and the outback has a habit of testing whether you packed the useful thing or just the thing you liked. I even did some modelling for the Uluru trip merch, which is not a sentence I expected to write as a Scout Leader.
Tonight should be an early one. In theory. If anyone manages to sleep, alarms will start going off around 4.30am so we can push off at 6.00am. First stop is Broken Hill, with Uluru waiting much further up the track.
To every expeditioner, leader, helper, parent, carer, and friend who helped get us to this point: thank you. The route is planned, the gear is packed, and the adventure is ready to roll. Uluru, we are knot far away now.
