Jamboree is more than a destination. It’s the adventure of a lifetime. It’s not camp, the National Jamboree is a one-of-a-kind event that is 10 days filled with fun, friends and fellowship, with hands-on adventure that takes you places you never thought you’d go and challenges you to try things you never thought you could. National Jamboree takes place at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia. Scouts from all over the country come to attend, and it is one of the largest Scouting events in the world. You can expect to see a lot of different activities, from hiking and camping to sports and games. There will also be a variety of different exhibits to check out, and you can learn about the history of Scouting and the different things that Scouts do.

The key objectives of the National Jamboree are to promote teamwork, leadership, and outdoor skills among Scouts. In addition, the event provides an opportunity for Scouts to learn about different cultures and lifestyles through interactions with other Scouts from across the country.

Youth members sign up for the Jamboree through an application process through their local councils, who then place each youth into the Jamboree troop. Large councils are granted multiple Jamboree troops.
