Lake District Fall Camporee
The LEGEND of the GAMEKEEPER
In the woods of Central Florida, an unsettling legend lingers. Stories are told of a shadowy figure known only as “The Gamekeeper”
A Senior Patrol Leader of a small troop that poured their hearts into hosting a grand camporee: preparing challenging competitions, crafting trophies, and planning a perfect weekend of Scouting fellowship.
BUT NOBODY CAME. Disheartened, the SPL refused to let the weekend go to waste and demanded his own troop compete in every challenge they had planned for others. The Scouts competed tirelessly, but were Not Prepared for their leader's relentless drive.
Those who faltered in the challenges were "held accountable," enduring strange and cryptic consequences.
As legend has it, the Gamekeeper and his troop were never seen again—except by those who dare to venture into these woods.
Today, the Lost Troop exists as shadows of their former selves,forever trapped in the games they created. They wait, eager to challenge any who enter,desperate for someone to finally break the cycle and free them from their cursed camporee.
This year, Scouts from across Lake District are called to step into the Gamekeeper’s lair. Your mission in the lair is to solve sinister puzzles, prove your Scouting skills, and earn the freedom of your Troop and the Gamekeeper’s Lost Troop before time runs out.
The forest will test your Scout knowledge, your courage, your teamwork and your ability to escape. As you arrive, you will encounter the trapped Scouts from the Lost Troop and receive your first puzzle to solve to help them.
Will you emerge victorious, or will you become another chapter in…The Legend Of The Gamekeeper?
