The National Capital Area Council is now accepting applications for 2017 National Scout Jamboree Troop and Crew Leaders. The 2017 Jamboree will held July 19 – 28, 2017 at the Summit Bechtel Family Reserve in West Virginia. NCAC plans to send 12 Scout Troops and 2 Venturing Crews to the Jamboree.
To have a successful Jamboree, the Council requires qualified and committed adult leadership. Troops require three adult leaders over the age of 21, a Scoutmaster and two Assistants and one adult between the ages of 18-21 to serve as Third Assistant. Crews require male/female adult leaders over the age of 21. Based on interest, a Council Leader Selection Committee will review all applications for leader qualifications and experience and conduct interviews of qualified applicants in early 2016.
Adult leader applicants should register online at the 2017 National Jamboree and complete NCAC Jamboree Unit Leader Experience Survey (links below). NCAC Unit Leader Experience Survey must be submitted to the Council Office (BSA – NCAC, Attn: Jamboree Leader Selection, 9190 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD 20814) not later than November 30, 2015.
