National Jamboree

Central Daylight Time
Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve
What’s a Jamboree? It’s not camp. National Jamboree is 360-degrees of fun, friends and fellowship with hands-on adventure that takes you places you never thought you’d go and challenge you to try things you never thought you could. It’s the beginning of your own heroes’ journey that will challenge you to go farther than you ever thought possible. You’ll reach deeper and lift yourself higher to become the best version of yourself.

THIS REGISTRATION IS OPEN TO ALL PARTICIPANTS.  YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO SELECT THE TROOP OR CREW OPTION DURING REGISTRATION TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT. 

THE ALAMO AREA COUNCIL HAS RESERVED 1 HALF TROOP FOR BOYS AND 1 HALF TROOP FOR GIRLS (18 YOUTH EACH AND 2 ADULTS EACH). 1 HALF CREW (18 YOUTH/ADULT PARTICIPANTS AND 2 ADULT LEADERS EACH).

NOTE: March 27, 2025 - our Jamboree Committee is currently working on putting the full experience together. They have decided we will fly directly to the Jamboree and bus in with no additional activities added on. Pricing is still being determined for the contingent's travel fees. We will begin collecting the Jamboree fees and then will add in the travel fees once they are determined. The cost to attend the National Jamboree on its own is $1560 per person. Travel must be done as a group - individual travel for the contingent is not permitted. 

NOTE: October 29, 2025 - price is set at 2400 for the total.  The payment plan is being updated below to reflect the new total and the new plan for payments.  

Refund Policy: Deposits are non-refundable.  If your slot is able to be filled with another participant from the waitlist once the unit is full, your payments are fully refundable.  If your slot is not able to be filled, the deposit and any fees paid on your behalf to the Jamboree or the Tour and Travel Company are non-refundable.

Payment Plan: (Please stick to this plan as closely as possible unless you are paying ahead - the schedule is set by the payments we are required to make on your behalf.  If you miss a payment or fall behind, please notify us at jamboree@alamoareascouting.org).
