National Jamboree

National Jamboree

Scouting’s flagship event is one-of-a-kind. It’s a gathering of approximately 45,000 Scouts, leaders, and staff that showcases everything that is great about the BSA and its members. Over the course of 10 summer days, once every four years, the Boy Scouts of America comes together. The result is the national Scout jamboree.

2011 World Jamboree Patch

On Sale for $3.50

If you were not able to attend the 2011 World Jamboree in Rinkaby, Sweden, here is your opportunity to obtain a momento. The double-sided patch with loop was designed for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. On one side, in the background, is a drawing of the world with the Angel Moroni on the fleur-di-lis prominently displayed in the foreground. The reverse side displays the Temple encircled by a compass with Angel Moroni being the north direction. The words “Duty to God,” “Honor,” and “Priesthood” surround the Temple. No matter how many times the patch flips, a stunning picture is revealed.

Statement by the Church on Scouting

“Where Scouting is authorized by the Church, quorums may participate in Scouting activities during Mutual. Under priesthood leadership, Scouting can complement the efforts of Aaronic Priesthood quorums and Primary classes in building testimonies in young men and boys. The following resources can help Scout leaders in their responsibilities.”
