Community: REDARC Sponsors Australian Scout Jamboree
REDARC was recently a proud sponsor of the AJ2019 Australian Scout Jamboree, supporting the hi-tech electronics activity in the hopes of inspiring the next generation of Australian engineers and technicians.
REDARC provided soldering kits for the hi-tech activity that gave scouts a taste of technologies including metal-detecting, drones, radio, electronics and more.
In attendance were more than 8,000 scouts from across Australia and countries around the world, aged between 11-14 that descended upon the Bend Motorsport Park in South Australia between Jan. 4-14.
The event covered a wealth of activities and learning opportunities for its participants, spanning trade experiences, technology discovery, adventurous activities, performing arts and a host of team building exercises.
“The annual Scout Jamboree is a once in a lifetime event for thousands of young people, providing them with opportunities to expand their skillsets and interests across a range of activities and fields,” said Anthony Kittel, REDARC managing director. “We hope that our support of the electronics activity has helped excite and inspire the participants to explore the learnings available to them in future years.”
