The model is national Jamborees have a single article-merge 19 and 20 into New Zealand Scout Jamboree--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 02:29, 16 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Totally agree. However, I do not think we have an editor in the Scouting project from NZ. I will take a look at this later. --Bduke (Discussion) 08:13, 18 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Draft Edits Or Ideas for the page for 2016/17 Jamboree edit

Sub Camps edit

The site is split into groups which are called Subcamps. Troops are allocated to each Subcamp Each subcamp had a subcamp office that was responsible for running the subcamp. (Needs More Information )

Staff edit

Youth and adult volunteer provide a number of services to the Jamboree by being on staff. many other staff members work in areas that serve the entire jamboree. Staff members arrive a number of days before the jamboree begins and usually depart on the same day or a few days later. To setup or pack up the site so that it is ready for the scouts to arrive on opening day.

Youth Staff Team (YST) edit

YST is a group of about 150 people aged from Yr 12 (in 2016) to 26 years old. These people come from Venturer groups all over the country and some may be from overseas. YST’s role is SERVICE, it is a chance to give back to Scouting. YST are RESPONSIBLE for supporting different areas/sites at the Jamboree, by providing extra manpower or skills where and as needed. YST is lots of FUN, you learn new skills and get better at what you are good at.

Not done - these are opinions, probably good opinions, but opinions nonetheless, so we can't use these.  Velella  Velella Talk   19:10, 27 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

(What YST do and are about) [1] Need other Areas like rovers

Yes, still needs a lot more including the history of all past Jamborees - I can't find it anywhere.  Velella  Velella Talk   19:10, 27 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Gateways edit

I think gateways are a major part of the troop experience. Perhaps we could have a section describing them with some examples? Jayden Silvernz (talk) 07:03, 29 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
