Podcasts about world jamboree

The Kander100 Jamboree was a huge success. World Jamboree 2023...not so much. Podcast Topics Ken and Colin discuss the challenges - to put it mildly - faced by those who attended the 25th World Scout Jamboree in Korea this summer, as well as the response of WOSM and various national contingents to the heat wave and other issues that emerged at the site. And then the conversation shifts to Kander100 and the experience of the Canadian Contingent thereat, as well as how Ken and his family enjoyed their Swiss vacation. Also: check out the Scouting Stuff Stuff page! You can order stickers there at the moment...and soon, neckerchiefs and badges will be available as well. Watch our social media for more details! Shout-Outs Samuel Ip was a member of the Hong Kong contingent at Kander100. While his campsite was right next to the Canadians', he and Scouter Ken didn't end up crossing paths...but he reached out to say hello and ask for some stickers. Scouter Nathalie also reached out to ask for some stickers, and followed up to say she enjoyed listening to the recent Pinkies episode...which happened to feature her daughter! And Simon left a five-star review on the website!

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 30, 2022 is: boondoggle • BOON-dah-gul • noun A boondoggle is a wasteful or impractical project or activity that usually involves public money or labor. Boondoggle is also a word for a braided cord worn by Boy Scouts as a neckerchief slide, hatband, or ornament. // Critics say the dam is a complete boondoggle—over budget, behind schedule, and unnecessary. See the entry > Examples: "Courtney Astolfi reports the cost of the renovation plan for the center, formerly known as the Medical Mart, has drawn deep skepticism from county residents who oppose sinking more money into what many view as a boondoggle of a building." — Cliff Pinckard, Cleveland.com, 14 Sep. 2022 Did you know? When boondoggle popped up in the early 1900s, lots of people tried to explain where the word came from. One theory traced it to an Ozarkian word for "gadget," while another related it to the Tagalog word that gave us boondocks. Another hypothesis suggested that boondoggle came from the name of leather toys Daniel Boone supposedly made for his dog. But the only theory that is supported by evidence is much simpler. In the 1920s, Robert Link, a scoutmaster for the Boy Scouts of America, apparently coined the word to name the braided leather cords made and worn by scouts. The word came to prominence when such a boondoggle was presented to the Prince of Wales at the 1929 World Jamboree, and it's been with us ever since. Over time, it developed the additional sense describing a wasteful or impractical project.

Let's learn a bit about the Summit Bechtel Reserve, the site of the upcoming 24th World Scouts Jamboree. ----more----Subscribe: iTunes | Google Play | Android | TuneIn Radio | Stitcher | Anchor Podcast Topics Brian rejoins us to talk about the Summit Bechtel Reserve, Boy Scouts of America's newest high adventure base. This facility, funded my a multi-million dollar grant from a number of major corporations, was the site of BSA's 2017 National Jamboree, and will also be the site of the 2019 24th World Scouts Jamboree, which is being co-hosted by Scouts Canada, Boy Scouts of America, and Asociación de Scouts de México.Brian also recaps his experiences at the National Jamboree, and discusses why attending the upcoming World Jamboree is an opportunity that should not, if at all possible, be missed out on. Shout-Outs The first shout-out of the night goes to Travis Normand, who sent in a lengthy email inspired by our episode about Philmont. In it, he recapped his own experiences at Philmont, among other things, and then in such detail that it really only makes sense to invite him on to talk about it in a future episode. And as always, a big thank you to the folks at Scouting Radio for rebroadcasting Scouting Stuff episodes to their worldwide Scouting audience.

Have you ever saved a life?In an emergency, can you do what it takes to help someone? Could you rescue them from a life-or-death situation? Perhaps you might think I am being a bit dramatic, but it's a serious question. Are you prepared? In July 1983, the 15th World Scouting Jamboree was held at Kananaskis, Alberta, in the shadow of the Canadian Rockies.  In December 1981, several members of our Venturer company were selected to attend the HikeMaster training camp in July 1982. If we passed the tests - physical and written, we would be part of a dedicated group that would be leading scouts from around the world on hikes and camps in the Rockies at the World Jamboree the next year. We were given plenty of warning so that we had time to prepare - and prepare we did.At 15 and 16, we were becoming reasonably experienced campers, and we all attended a St John's first aid course. We also had to do a weekend "solo" hiking pre-camp (no adult leaders), to help prepare us for being self-reliant and leading groups of scouts - including their adult leaders.Little did we know we would be testing our skills, teamwork and those First-Aid lessons in earnest in only a few short months - in a real life-or-death situation. Listen to the podcast or read the full article on Gazza's Corner Blog.
