Dear Jamboree Coordinator, Scouter, or Scout Executive,
It's not very often that you have a chance to be part of history. The 2013 National Scout Jamboree scheduled for July 15–24, 2013, is that opportunity. This will be the first event at the BSA's new jamboree home, the Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve.
It will be the most action-packed Scouting event ever, with mountain biking, paddleboarding, zip lines, canopy tours, rafting, kayaking, and much, much more. The 2013 Jamboree will also include all the things you love from previous jamborees—patch trading, scuba, etc.
There is only one first time, and this is it. We want you to join us!
To help assist you in recruiting staff and attendees, we have developed several tools that are available at the Summit website. Click on the link below and look for the great new tools that are available:

Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help us make this the greatest jamboree ever. I look forward to seeing you at the Summit.
Yours in Scouting,
Larry Pritchard
Jamboree Director
