Yesterday afternoon the National Jamboree team made the announcement that due to the uncertainties brought forth by COVID-19, the 2021 Jamboree has been postponed. At this time nothing has been posted as to when it will be rescheduled.
National did provide an FAQ and more information via its Bryan on Scouting Blog. Here is a link to that site: https://jamboree.scouting.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2020/07/NSJ21_Postponement_FAQ_FINAL-003.pdf
Green Mountain Council was not notified in advance and we appreciate your understanding as we work through what this decision means for our families.
I'm sure this news will generate many questions about the status of the Jamboree contingent.
Please give us a few days to determine what is the best way to proceed.
I will follow up with more information by early next week.
In the meantime, you may direct any questions you have to me.
Thank you
Russ Baker
GMC Jamboree Chair
