Food restrictions such as Kosher, Halal, Celiac and Nut allergies will be honored.
In addition, there are many Gluten-free and vegetarian choices in our menu’s. The information included in our menu documents  address ingredients  and  notifications  to assist all Jamboree  participants in avoiding items that may cause allergic reactions or discomfort.  Note the Menus and ingredients will be included in contingent menu information.  You may also opt to bring additional shelf stable supplements.

Scouts BSA units will be camped in areas based on gender specified portables (showers/restrooms).  Camp areas will be separated by barriers such as roads or swells so that campsites are defined.  Council contingents (multiple units/partial units) can travel to the jamboree together as long as BSA policy is followed.

For partial units they will be grouped with other like units prior to the jamboree to insure minimum BSA requirements/policies are met.

Ex. a Scouts BSA female group of 2 adults and 8 youth can travel to and from the jamboree with Scouts BSA male counterparts but when they arrive at Jamboree they will be camping in separate units.

Appropriate leadership (BSA approved leaders that meet eligibility requirements).  Each unit must have a minimum of 4 registered BSA members 21 or older.

The Unit Care Provider must be one of the Unit Leaders (SM or ASM) and is required to hold either current Wilderness First Aid and CPR certificates or a current healthcare license (MD, DO, APRN, RN, PA, Paramedic, EMT). This unit leader’s responsibilities include providing for the safety and well-being of each unit member by a) reviewing their AHMR and maintaining a binder/file containing all of the Unit’s AHMRs, b) maintaining the Unit First Aid Kit and providing first aid treatment within the unit and c) overseeing administration of required medications. 

Proper tenting (each contingent of 40 is restricted to 22 tents; each tent cannot exceed 9’x9.5’ base).

The ALC (Arnold Logistics Center), will not be able to accommodate contingent tents or other supplies being shipped ahead to the ALC for distribution.  The deployment cost in equipment and labor would exceed the budget which we have been strictly advised to manage with no variance.

A tent is the only additional item needed that is different than past jamborees. These can be the second bag in regard to air, bus or rail travel. (Some carriers may waive any surcharge as part of the package when making group travel arrangements.)

When will the National Jamboree registration system close for the 2023 National Jamboree?

The registration system will close at midnight Eastern time on April 30, 2023, to allow adequate time for various orders to be placed / received and the implementation of processes that are specific to the number of attendees, such as credential ordering, registration packet assembly, etc.
