Dear Green Mountain Council Scouts, Venturers and Families,
It is still not too late to sign up for World Jamboree 2019, truly the Scouting Experience of a Lifetime! So true, since this will be the first World Scout Jamboree held in the U.S. since 1967, and likely the last held here in at least a generation to come. Join us in the U.S. Contingent at WSJ 2019, which is co-sponsored with Scouts Canada and the Scouts Association of Mexico, and held at the Summit in W.Va.
But please note the following information about scholarships and DEADLINE:
