Jamboree on the Air

As you may be aware, the Scouts' *Jamboree on the Air* weekend is fast
approaching and is being held over the weekend of the 20th to 22nd October
2017.

This is a great event and with it being in its 60th year, has become an
integral event for Hams and Scouts to get together and make those all
important contacts with other scouts from around South Africa and the
World. The Jamboree is the largest scouting event in the World, with
approximately 1.5 million Cubs, Scouts and Guides taking part from every
continent on Earth.

What can Amateur Radio Clubs and individuals do for this great event? How
about setting up a small station, or inviting a Group to your station for
either the day or the weekend. A simple field day type station is all that
is required. Show the youth what Amateur Radio is all about and get them
making contacts. Smaller events held with either a troop, or a district are
encouraged as this gives the youngsters more time and chances to operate.

Last year, we saw a 400% growth in Amateur Radio stations, with a total of
18 Amateur Radio stations in operation.

If you are able to assist or would like more information regarding this
fantastic event, please contact Richard Hooper on
richard  sandringhamscouts.co.za and he will put you in direct contact with
the District Commissioner and the Scouter in charge of the nearest Scouting
group to you.

The youth are the future of our fantastic hobby, and with Scouting, they
work so well together.
