The Thinking Times – Friday
| By Blair Everywhere
Welcome to the first edition of this year’s Thinking Times. Feel free to print them out and display them somewhere where you can take a few minutes during the day to think.
We hope that these provide you with daily stimulation giving you ‘food for thought’, a smile, a challenge, and maybe all three.

How does Blair Everywhere work?
| By Blair Everywhere
Welcome! There are lots of ways you can join in with Blair Everywhere.
You can watch our Live Events on our Facebook page.
You can head to the campsite map to find all kinds of activities – there are 9 tents and areas to find!
You can join us on Scoutlink – our online chat room.
You can share your pictures and videos on social media using the hashtag #BlairEverywhere
You can look at our social media posts, and look through the other posts in the hashtag to see how everyone else is joining in.
If you find the campsite map hard to use, there is a list of links to all the areas at the bottom of every page.
Please register yourself or your group if you’re joining in – you can still access everything anyway, but we’d love to know how many people were involved in Blair Everywhere
We hope you have fun, and remember to stay safe, ask permission and get help from an adult when you need it!
Badges
| By Blair Everywhere
Blair Atholl 2020 special badge
We wanted to maintain the traditional Blair Atholl yellow badge for 2020 participants, but have used the red border to reflect this year’s unusual circumstances.
All young people (Scottish and International) will receive a BA2020 badge, as will International Leaders who had registered and paid a deposit.
Scottish Leaders and their families, who had applied for Blair Atholl 2020, had the opportunity to buy a BA2020 badge. Orders for these have now closed
Blair Everywhere badge
The Blair Everywhere badge is styled after the White Cockade badge, which Explorers can earn at Blair Atholl by participating in a wide selection of activities over the course of the camp.
These were available for everyone to buy whether you’ve registered, joined in, or just want to add it to your collection. Orders have now closed
Both types of badges will be manufactured after Blair Everywhere, hopefully in 3-4 weeks, and sent out by our volunteer team. We can’t guarantee shipping dates.
Other merchandise
You can get mugs, badges, pop sockets, hoodies and other Blair merch on the Glasgow Scout Shop website.
Nights Away at home
If your leaders registered you for Blair Everywhere, the nights you spend sleeping in a tent or den at home will count towards your nights away badges.
If you registered for yourself, make sure you let your leaders know that you joined in, and how many nights you spent in your tent or den at home.
And of course, we’d love to see pictures of your set up! Share them with us on social media using the hashtag #BlairEverywhere
