The National Jamboree is a large gathering of Boy Scouts and leaders that is held every four years in the United States. The first National Jamboree was held in 1937, and the event has been held every four years since then, except for 1943 and 1947 when it was not held due to World War II. The National Jamboree is typically held at a large campground or military base, and it lasts for about 10 days. Scouts from all over the country attend the National Jamboree, and they participate in a variety of activities, including camping, hiking, swimming, and fishing. The National Jamboree is a great opportunity for Scouts to learn new skills, make new friends, and have fun.
The 2025 National Jamboree will be held at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia. The Summit Bechtel Reserve is a 10,000-acre (4,000 ha) property that was donated to the Boy Scouts of America by the Bechtel family. The Summit Bechtel Reserve is home to a variety of outdoor activities, including camping, hiking, swimming, and fishing. The 2025 National Jamboree is expected to be the largest National Jamboree ever held, with over 50,000 Scouts and leaders in attendance.
