2013 NATIONAL SCOUT JAMBOREE BLACK SWAMP AREA COUNCIL JAMBOREE UPDATE
Get ready! The 2013 National Scout Jamboree is coming and it ain't your father's Jamboree. We're talking serious high adventure, people! Whitewater rafting, zip-lining, rappelling, mountain biking, hiking, and more - with 50,000 of your closest friends at the brand new Summit Bechtel Reserve in the wilds of West Virginia. Check out the key dates below and start planning now to be a part of history at the very first Jamboree at The Summit. Get registered before the end of May, 2012.
Summit Bechtel Reserve Shakedown Opportunity
The Black Swamp Area Council has partnered with the Miami Valley Council in Dayton, OH to send a Boy Scout troop on a shakedown trip to the Bechtel Summit in West Virginia in 2012. After reading the information below, please contact Curt Brookhart at the Findlay office if you would like to be included in this group. Help us test the Summit! This is an exciting opportunity for youth and adults to be among the first to camp at the Summit Bechtel Reserve and to play an important role in the final planning process for the 2013 National Scout Jamboree. The purpose of the 2012 Summit Shakedown is to test various components of the new jamboree model on-site at the Summit with a manageable but meaningful number of staff and participants. The format will be a "long weekend," starting on Friday morning, July 13, and ending on Tuesday morning, July 17. This would be a great opportunity for the youth leadership (Senior Patrol Leader, Patrol Leader, etc.) already planning to attend the Jamboree, to experience the Summit in advance of 2013.
