National Scout Jamboree 2010

The Winnebago Council Contingent to the National Scout Jamboree

Scouts from the Winnebago Council will have the opportunity to attend the National Scout Jamboree, July 26 - August 4, 2010, at Fort A.P. Hill, Caroline County, Virginia, with nearly 180 Scouts from all over the Winnebago Council. In 2005 there were over 40,000 scouts and leaders in attendance from all over the country and from all over the world. It is the experience of a lifetime and one you won't want to miss, as the Boy Scouts of America celebrate their 100th anniversary. Imagine 10 days of fun and activities - all day long - every day - plus some spectacular arena shows with great entertainment, and an opportunity to tour some of our country's historic past in Washington D.C. and surrounding areas.

Start making plans now for your Scouts to attend the 2010 National Scout Jamboree. The Winnebago Council will again be offering various money earning opportunities to help Scouts attend the Jamboree. Learn more:
