Hello Fellow Scouts - JamboTroopBlogger Dave here in South Jordan, Utah.Almost everyone knows that 100 Years of Scouting is the theme for the 2010 Jamboree. We also know that many Scouts collect patches; some even take it beyond the "just for fun" level.
Anyway, the National Scout Jamboree in 2010 will feature a patch collection that will form the number "100" using 21 patch-logos for the same number of sub-camps at Jamboree 2010.
For a better idea of what I am talking about, take a look at the WR Jamboree Newsletter for August. It just came out on the 19th and includes a picture of the four Western Region sub-camp patch-logos, plus an arrow showing where in the overall "100" set of patches they fit.
As an example, Scouts coming from the Great Salt Lake Council (GSLC) have been assigned to sub-camp 6. The number 6 coincides with the first number of our Jamboree Troop 605, based in Salt Lake City, and part of the GSLC. Looking for number 6 in the set of patch-logos reveals that JT-605 hails from the Great Basin area of the Western Region. The Great Basin Patch-Logo is shown above in this post.
JamboreeTroopBlogger Dave has been told that Scouts will be able to collect (puchase) all 21 patches to make the "100" set. A large neckerchief will be available for display purposes. So, be prepared for patch trading and collecting at Jamboree 2010 - more on this topic in the future.
