2005 National Scout Jamboree Staff Needed

[troop251scout]

What areas do they still need help in?? i am from jersey

[wagionvigil]

BMX,Action Alley,Confidence Course,Pioneering,Bikathlon,Archery,BB Guns,shot guns. The only staff in the Action Center that is almost full is the Rappel Tower.If you arn't sure which you want to do just put action Center D and you will be assigned.
The Big thing here folks is these areas Must be fully staffed to offer a quilty and safe program for the scouts attending. if the areas do not get the staffing needed they will be closed down for saefty reasons boththe scouts safety and the staffs safety.

Perhaps I should have tried for the area I'm trained in (emergency stuff). I tried last year to get info re: the International Staff area. Hmmm, I could get a response someday......well, uhh....it could happen, haha.

Fill out anothet application requesting another position. Centrals Action Center is pretty full for some reason so positions there are limited. People overlook the action centers for more (glamorus) positions

Im trying to get into a troop right now im on the waiting list or i will be as i am sending my paper work in tomorrow. However, if not then i would like to be on staff.. How long do they take staff or up to what date.

[wagionvigil]

If you cannot get in a troop soon apply for staff They will take staff up until the positions are filled

[troop251scout]

Ok, thanks! I appreciate the help. Maybe i will see you at jambo!

[troop251scout]

I just talked to the scoutmaster of our jambo troop and he said that there isnt anything open... so i am seriously considering staff because i want to go... but just one question... what is action alley, and confidence course... like what do you do in them?

[wagionvigil]

Confidence course and Action alley are the high and low ropes courses. Zip Lines,Flying Squirrels etc.

[wagionvigil]

Remember you nmust be 16 to be on staff

[troop251scout]

alright! thanks! and i will be 17 by jambo!

Well, I'm starting to wish I'd put off the decision to make a career switch and go back to school. Back then I would have had the money (and could have made the time since it was time for a switch anyway). I've got much more time now, but finding a way to pay the $600 is giving me headaches. I'll do my best, and hopefully you guys find enough staff with or without me.

[wagionvigil]

I am probably beating a dead horse here BUT there are still many staff positions open for the Jamboree. We need at least 5 more for the Rappel Tower In Action D and It is closest to be full. If you want to go this is a great way to make it happen BUT you do have to work. It does also cost.

Troop251Scout are you from Troop 251 in Irwin PA if you don't mind me asking. If so we may actually be from the same troop and not realize we are both posting here hehe
