2010 National Jamboree Day 4 | |
I had part of the day off and spent it wondering around visiting different parts of the Jamboree. | |
I started the afternoon in the farthest area of the Jamboree. In this area, they have an "old British" Settlement. | |
An early version of basketball? |
|
He was confused by our "black magic box". | |
I'm sure they only kept Rootbeer in it. . . |
|
One of our hosts. | |
A game of tug-o-war. |
|
Order of the Arrow set up the Mysterium Compass. The main 2 hour show was only for those under 18, so I don't know what it was, but the boys enjoyed it. There was a huge museum inside filled with scouting memerabilia. | |
The unveiling of the new Scouting stamp. |
|
There was a 2 hour + walk through on conservation. Extremely well done and interactive. I even got a patch out of it! Here they are panning gold. | |
I finally got back the SubCamp 14. |
|
Troop 1448's gateway. | |
Part of the camp. |
|
The tents lined up in nice rows. | |
3 of the 4 leaders. The boys must be having fun. At 3 in the afternoon, there were only 3 boys in camp! |
|
There was a large area about Disability Awareness. I was amazed and pleased to see a huge number of scouts having fun in this area. | |
Learning to use a walking stick. |
|
Archery in a wheelchair. The story was you were wounded in battle, lost both legs and your left arm. | |
Bowling. |
|
Wheelchair backetball was very popular. The Veteran who was playing basketball with the scouts had lost both legs and his right arm in the war. | |
Crutch obstacle course. |
|
How do you get those items out of the cabinet? | |
The final update today comes from the other side of the area. The boys can learn to sail if they wish. Looked like fun. |
