2005 National Jamboree At the 2005 National Jamboree over 43,000 scouts, leaders and staff came together at Fort AP Hill creating the fastest growing city in the commonwealth of Virginia. Throughout the Jamboree, scouts had the opportunity to climb, bike, boat, advance in rank, and best of all have fun! The activities at Jamboree are seemingly countless meaning the opportunities to make every day a great day for scouting at the jamboree are endless. The National Jamboree attracts scouters from not only the United States but from all over the world. Numerous high ranking government dignitaries visit Jamboree because they understand that the scouting movement is training the leaders of tomorrow and helping to make strong youth in America through activities that build true character. President Bush addressed more than 75,000 scouts and celebrated the timeless values the scouting movement promotes. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist visited in addition to the Surgeon General. Chief Scout Executive Roy L. Williams and BSA President John Cushman recognized scouts in a national court of honor for extraordinary bravery. Plans for the 2010 National Jamboree have already begun and actually begun before the 2005 National Jamboree took place. It will signify the 100th anniversary celebration of the Boy Scouts of America. But before the biggest celebration the Boy Scouts of America has ever seen, 2007 will show scouting's best to the entire planet with the 21st World Jamboree in Hylands Park, Chelmsford, England.
