August 1 to August 12, 2023 Oct 7 2022…. WAIT LIST – The US Contingent Management Team has made the decision to allow potential youth participants to join a waiting list for the US Contingent to the 2023 World Jamboree. This is an effort to ensure that every possible available space is filled and ensure that as many as
possible who desire to go to this once-in-a-lifetime event have the opportunity to do so. Spaces will not be filled on a First Come, First Served basis.Instead spaces will be filled from the waiting list according to available spaces in units and other considerations such as geographical location. Those who wish to join the waiting list will be asked to pay a $2367.00 deposit. This will bring them up to the current amount due for all participants. Any not selected will receive a full
refund. To register go to events.scouting.org Be sure you are logged into my scouting using the youth’s account for whom you will be registering. If you are having issues with registration, payment, or cancellation, send an email to . Please include your name, Scouting ID Number, your email and phone number, and a description
of your issue. The World Scout Jamboree [WSJ] is held every four years.

A jamboree is something that only occurs at the high school level. It's essentially an event where multiple high school football teams come together and play simulated games against every other team. It's a way that all of these young teams can get a lot of work + preparation in over a very short period of time.
The 25th World Scout Jamboree will be held August 1–12, 2023 at Saemangeum, North Jeolla, South Korea, hosted by Korea Scout Association with the theme, "Draw Your Dream".
