1 How to guide: Operation Ready activity Who for? Scouts or Venturer How long? minutes Part 3: Getting Badges? Global Resources needed: Getting ready to go Stations Post office paperwork Embassy paperwork Bank paperwork Travel agent paperwork Pharmacy paperwork credits Customs check list Preparation: Print and familiarize yourself with each resource. Sett up 6 stations around the room and put one of the Stations resources on each table. Try and secure the assistance of other section leaders or parents to cover each station. With the exception of the Getting ready to go, Stations and the Customs check list resources, the resources will need to be printed out more than once one of each for every team. These will need to be placed on their corresponding stations. Cut out the foreign currency and Traveler s checks from the Travel agent paperwork resource. About this activity This is part 3 of the Operation (it can be run as a standalone activity if you wish). It is very interactive and lots of fun as Scouts prepare to send their es to Pakistan. If you are planning on using this activity, it is advisable to read through each of the resourcess carefully to get a clear sense of how it should run. There s a real sense of teamwork as each competes to see who gets ready to go on deployment the fastest. 1 How to run guide Operation Part 3 Scouts

2 Step 1 Read the Getting ready to go resource and divide the group into 5 teams. If there are not enough parents or other section leaders to help with the stations, get 5 Scouts to cover them instead. It is advisable that whomever is leading the task is on the customs station. Step 2 Explain to your Scouts they need to have each bit of documentation ready and in the right order before they can go through customs and on deployment. Tell them it s a race against time and they have 25 minutes to get ready for departure. Only one member of the team can get up at one time. 5 stations are: 1. Pharmacy 2. Bank 3. Post office 4. Travel agent 5. Embassy Customs at the end Step 3 The Scouts should now be trying to figure out the correct order with one person visiting each station. The correct order should be. Bank - to get their credits to purchase items at the following stations Pharmacy - vaccines and toiletries Post Office - passport application and stationary Bank - to get Traveler s checks and foreign currency both these items need to be picked up on two separate visits. Travel agent - to buy train ticket Embassy - to obtain visa and passport (this can only happen once the passport application form has been filled out, a vaccine certificate has been obtained and Traveler s Checks have been purchased) Travel agent - to collect their boarding pass Customs - It is advisable that whoever is the person in charge of running the activity, covers customs. When Scouts come to him/ her stating they are ready to travel, using the Customs check list resource, check that they have every item. The first team to reach customs with every item wins! 2 How to run guide Operation Part 3 Scouts
