2010 Centennial National Jamboree Please join the Denver Area Council Contingent to the 2010 Centennial National Jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia. This event is one of the most significant in a Scout's career, joining 250 Scouts from Denver and 45,000 Scouts from the United States and foreign countries.
The Council contingent will tour east coast historic locations for 6-8 days and then join the Jamboree for 10 days. Our contingent will include 7 troops, each comprised of 36 Boy Scouts and 4 adult Scout leaders. Boys must be 1st Class and 12 years of age by July 1, 2010, but not have reached their 18th birthday by August 4, 2010. Troops have been formed and will begin operations including development of adult leadership, boy leadership, committee support, fund raising, planning, fellowship and great Scouting! We expect the cost of this event to be $2,500 per Scout. Extensive fund raising activity is planned in order to assist all Scouts to cover the costs. Scholarship support will be available on an individual situation basis. The Denver Area Council Jamboree Contingent still has openings available.
