Family and friends are permitted to visit the Jamboree, and encouraged to do so. While
the schedule may be subject to change, the Jamboree will probably be open to the public
beginning on Wednesday, July 28, and continuing through Tuesday, August 3, from 9am to 5pm,
with the exception of the evening arena show date when visitors may remain on the site to attend
the show until 11pm. However, if you are planning a visit, please let us know before we leave
New hampshire, so that the Scout will know when you are coming. Otherwise, he may be off for the
entire day at remote activities. Visiting in or following the busses on the Jamboree pre-tour is
not recommended at all. Not a good idea. The Scouts will need to build relationships with other
Scouts that are key to enjoying the Jamboree; the adult leaders will have special responsibilities
and will not be in a position to deal with visitors during the trip itself. More information about
visiting is available on the National Jamboree Website.
