Rob Lavers from the 14th Bulawayo (North End) Scout Troop, joined the South African Contingent as Patrol Leader to attend the 1955 8th World Jamboree Mondial Canada. John Landau (later became Chief Scout of Rhodesia) joined us in camp at the 8th Jamboree in Canada. The other one who joined us in the South African camp was the son of well known Dr. Olive Robertson of Bulawayo.
