Scouting & Bushcraft Convention

Jurtenland und Time FoRest on the Adventure Southside 2018

The Scouting & Bushcraft Convention takes place at Eigeltingen

In early summer 2019 the first convention dealing with Scouting and Bushcraft topics is going to take place. We are still working on the details, but we can already give you an overview of our plans and the conditions of joining.

What is a Scouting & Bushcraft Convention?

A Convention (lat. convenire = get together, in short Con) is an event, where people with similar interests come together to meet more people who share their hobby. Some conventions are also selling related products. In this case normal products are on offer as well as specially developed things, sometimes created by fans especially for the convention. It is not always possible to distinguish a Convention from a Fair. Often shows and competitions are part of a convention.

Who is the organiser of the Scouting & Bushcraft Convention?

Jurtenland was an exhibitor on the Adventure Southside 2016, 2017 and 2018. An exhibition team, that worked very well together was formed in the process. At the end of 2018 some of the team members founded a non-profit association for organising futher exhibitions themselves. This association organises the Scouting & Bushcraft Convention without the purpose of gain.

Who do we want to adress?

Our topics should attract Scouts, Bushcrafter, people interested in wilderness and survival skills, individual tourists and anyone who deals with outdoor activities or is interested to learn more about them.

How big is the Scouting & Bushcraft Convetion going to be?

At the moment we expect 200 to 300 people. Besides Jurtenland and TimeFoRest we can accomodate 10 to 20 further exhibitors. One day the Convention will be open to the public with a -so far- unknown number of visitors.

Jurtenland is going to offer about 15 to 20 workshops. Besides any participant can offer their own workshop or lecture, so the program for the weekend should offer many choices.
