The 2017 Canadian Scout Jamboree will be held at Camp Nedooae, Elderbank, Nova Scotia, from July 8 - 15, 2017. The jamboree is open to Scout and Scouter participants, and Venturer, Rover, and Scouter offers of service (volunteers).

* Flights had to be booked as one-way trips because the same people will not all be on each leg, as all of the Scouters and their respective youth are either arriving early before, or staying later after the Jamboree. See the #Travel section for more details.

** Food is purchased at on-site grocery stores. We've been advised to estimate about $20-24 per person per day.

Patrols

A jamboree patrol is composed of 2 Scouters and between 5 to 8 Scouts. We are sending two patrols.

  • Patrol PU2471:
    • Scouts: Amy, Ewan, Christian, Aiden, Stuart
    • Scouters: Graham, Jennifer
  • Patrol PU2475:
    • Scouts: Derek, Samuel, William, Liam, Alex

Each patrol is an individual unit that camps, cooks, and attends activities together. Both our patrols will be camping side-by-side in the "Gold Rush Trail" BC/Yukon Subcamp.
