2026 National Scout Jamboree
The National Scout Jamboree is one of the pinnacle adventures that a Scout can experience. Scouting’s flagship event is one-of-a-kind. Typically held every four years, it’s a gathering of approximately 15,000 Scouts, leaders, and service team members that showcases everything that is great about Scouting. Features include: one of the longest zip line courses in North America, a world-class skate park, ATV offerings, treetop canopy tours, rock climbing, water activities, patch trading, stadium shows, and much more! The next National Scout Jamboree will be held on July 22-31, 2026, at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia.
The Southern Sierra Council has teamed up with the Golden Empire Council to make the journey to the National Scout Jamboree. The trip includes a tour of the Washington, DC area several days before the Jamboree.
