Visitors have the opportunity to experience an assortment of activities, from abseiling and archery, to climbing, high ropes and bushcraft.<\/p>\n<p>The Japanese manufacturer is working in partnership with PACCAR Scout Camp as part of its on-going initiative to support charities that are focused not only on improving the prosperous life of humans, but also protecting the environment.<\/p>\n<p>Karen Tipping, Kubota UK\u2019s Marketing Manager, said: \u201cWe are delighted to support the PACCAR Scout Camp. The work and commitment of its 120 volunteers to give children of all ages the opportunities to experience the great outdoors is fantastic.\u00a0 For many of the camp\u2019s 50,000 visitors a year, it can be the first time they will have ever experienced the outdoors like they can at PACCAR Scout Camp. It\u2019s an adventurous experience that\u2019s not only fun and entertaining, but it can help build self esteem, confidence and team building skills.<\/p>\n<p>These values are important to Kubota and we are extremely proud of our manufacturing excellence and our commitment to the environment, highlighted by our \u2018For Earth, For Life\u2019 brand statement. Being partnered with PACCAR scout group is excellent and we are so pleased that we can aid them with the brilliant work they do\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>To help the camp\u2019s volunteers get around the 67-acre site, Kubota has donated its rugged and robust RTV-X900 utility vehicle.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1706 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/PACCAR-11-600px.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/PACCAR-11-600px.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/PACCAR-11-600px-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/strong>Cliffe Brooke, Operations Manager at PACCAR Scout Camp, commented: \u201cOn behalf of everyone at PACCAR, we would like to thank Kubota and our local dealer George Browns for their support. We are a charity organisation, and like all charities, we need funding to be able to survive. With Kubota donating us the RTV-X900, it means we can focus our funds on what\u2019s most important \u2013 continually improving our site and facilities to make the experience our visitors have when they come here, even better.\u00a0 The machine will make a huge difference operationally, making life much easier for our volunteers, from ferrying equipment around for activities, to woodland management and general maintenance. It will also allow us to access areas of the 67-acre site that we previously couldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>The Kubota brand is synonymous with quality and reliability, we\u2019ve had a Kubota compact tractor now for over ten years and it never lets us down. We are really looking forward to putting the RTV-X900 through its paces now and seeing what it can do. It will be an integral piece of machinery that will be used every single day so we are delighted to receive Kubota\u2019s support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Kubota UK call 01844 268000 or visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kubota.co.uk\">www.kubota.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kubota UK has joined forces with PACCAR Scout Camp, a charity funded organisation dedicated to helping young people achieve their <\/p>\n<a class=\"btn-sub-green l-blog-post-readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/2018\/07\/kubota-helping-young-people-fulfil-their-potential-with-paccar-scout-camp-partnership\/\" title=\"Read more\">Read more<\/a>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1705,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1704","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-plant-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1704"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1704\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1707,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1704\/revisions\/1707"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1705"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1704"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1704"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
