What activities are available for leaders and what will they cost?

We don’t know all the details yet but keep a lookout on the Jamboree website for details.

What jobs can I do at the Jamboree?

There are lots of jobs in a lot of different areas. Generally the Jamboree organising committee will try to match people with the job that they have asked for as their first preference or for which they have a special skill or qualification (particularly a water activity).

What do I do if I have a problem during the Jamboree?

You should first contact your contingent headquarters and discuss your problem with the Service Leaders Liaison Leader who will be stationed at headquarters.

How do we get there?

Current NSW policy is that all contingent members will travel to the Jamboree by bus and only in exceptional circumstances will independent travel be approved.

Do I have to do any training to be a leader at the Jamboree?

NSW has a policy that every leader who wishes to be considered for a line leaders position, that is a leader with a troop, has to complete a line leader’s training course. A number of the courses will be held in metropolitan and country regions so that everybody who wants to can attend.

Do I have to bring my own tent?

Probably, if you are a service leader, as the Jamboree organising committee does not have sufficient tents to allocate to service leaders. You will be advised if you need to bring a tent by your Regional Commissioner (Scouts). If you are attached to a troop then talk to the troop leader about tentage.
