Jamborees are a lot of fun, but they are also an awesome immersion experience, building self-confidence and developing independence, responsibility, and self-reliance in the Scouts who attend.
A Jamboree provides a safe, structured environment for Scouts to challenge themselves to try new adventures, develop social skills outside their normal peer groups and gain new skills working together over 10 days. After returning from a Jamboree, Scouts have even been known to clean their rooms without being asked, cook the family dinner and do their own clothes washing!
