Boy Scouts of America National JOTA report and video

The *Boy Scouts of America* have released their 2014 report for the
Jamboree On The Air (JOTA) held in October.

The report shows an across the board decline in participation by Boy Scout
Councils, individual Scouts, and by stations.

Attendance at JOTA took a big jump in 2012 with 18,566 Scouts and visitors.
This was a huge leap from just two years earlier when only 454 people were
a part of the JOTA event. Since then the number has fallen by more than
5,000 to this years total of 13,326 reported Scouts and visitors. Likewise
only 148 Boy Scout Councils were active this year, down from 173 last year.

National JOTA Coordinator Jim Wilson K5ND states that 354 stations had
registered this year, but only 205 submitted operating reports. This makes
it difficult for organizers to have an accurate picture of exactly how many
stations and scouts were really involved.

Despite this decline across the nation, Jamboree operations in Nevada seem
to have hit their stride. Locations in Elko, Reno, Las Vegas, and elsewhere
in the state saw an overflow of Scouts, parents, and hams enjoying this
years JOTA experience.
