Jamboree Happenings

I know that you have not heard from us in a few days. We're well, but very busy.

Yesterday started with a 4 AM wake-up.  Our bus left the hotel in Alexandria, VA close to 6 AM.  After a scare with low coolant, we breezed through registration without issue and arrived at our campsite a little after 2 PM.

Campsite setup took the rest of the afternoon with dinner being served around 8 PM in time to watch the sunset.

The opening stadium show this morning helped raise every one's spirits as the Jamboree was officially opened.

Check for pictures on the BSA's flickr page here.

If you missed the live web cast of the stadium show, please check for a possible on demand replay at jambolive.org.

Daily news items are posted at jamboreetoday.org.

While we are not taking quite as many pictures since arriving , we are taking a few.  The challenge is getting enough power and bandwidth to post them.  Be assured that another website and/or DVD will be created after everything is over.  I will figure out a way for everyone to submit pictures and get them out to everyone else sometime this fall.

Tomorrow, many members of the troop will be white water rafting.

Go big!  Get wild!
