My Happiest Childhood Memory
I attended Second All India Scouts and Guides Jamboree when I was 14 years. This was held at Bani Park in Jaipur, Rajasthan from 27th December to 31st December 1956. More than 10,000 Scouts and Guides from all over India participated. The cold there was really bone chilling and I had to stay in the tent with all my school mates. Morning 6 use to be a wakeup call on Army Bigul. Within 45 minutes we used to get ready and reach parade ground. Witnessing 10000 Scouts and Guides in uniform and colour party with colourful flags ready for parade was a superb and smart scene. Commands were given on loud speakers with the background music of band. What a fabulous music and parade scene. It was hilarious. We used to make breakfast, lunch, tea/coffee and supper ourselves. Doing laundry and cleaning utensils was also part of our activities. This makes us independent so we can take care of the things we need ourselves. Early evenings we were allowed to move in the entire jamboree area and meet new people, interact and make friends. We were there for five days and enjoyed a lot. This is one of my happiest and the best childhood memories.
