Scouts in Langley learn how to communicate during emergencies

*Weekend event at Camp McLean part of worldwide Jamboree On The Air and
Jamboree On The Internet*

In the open-air chapel at Camp McLean <http://www.campmclean.ca/> in
Langley, VA7NF was explaining the art of communicating long-distance by ham
radio to a small group of scouts.

That is the amateur radio callsign for Stan Williams, one of several
volunteers teaching scouts how to maintain communications in the event of
an emergency.

Elsewhere in the youth camp owned and operated by Scouts Canada in Campbell
Valley Park, a wire antenna was strung up from some trees next to the
chapel and not far away, a 100-foot-tall portable radio tower overlooked
the tall trees in a clearing.
Over at the main lodge, scouts were on the internet, communicating with
their counterparts across the globe in supervised chat rooms.

About 100 scouts and 40 volunteers took part in the weekend event, part of
the worldwide Jamboree On The Air and Jamboree On The Internet (JOTA-JOTI).

It is the largest scouting event in the world with over 1.8 million
participating.
