Daniel Maclaury commented on Steve Henning's blog post When less is more"I have to disagree about having temps in the 80's. It seemed as if the heat index was always in the Black zone or close to it. And I look forward to the 2013 Jamboree."
Steve Henning commented on National Jambo Team's group Jambo Adult Staff"The BSA supplies its own Jamboree volunteer security staff. The Military Police, FBI, Secret Service, ATF, Caroline County and Virginia State Police handled violations of County, State or Federal laws only. At the Summit, the only…"

National Jambo Team said… - Steve, it is a true pleasure to welcome you as a Member of NationalJambo.Org! I respect greatly your contributions to the Jamboree program (both National and World). A major goal of our site is to keep the Jamboree "alive" now that the event is over, and also have it become a community for all those who have a great passion for National Jamborees. Hope you can reconnect with some of your Jambo friends from prior events. Good luck with the 1935 National Scout Jamboree patch contest. Please tell your other Scout friends and your Hawk Mountain Council about NationalJambo.Org so we can continue to build our online National Jamboree community. 2013 (and 2011) here we come! Doug Newsom
