On the way to the Jamboree
by HML
After a year of preparation, pre-jamboree campouts and shakedowns, and long evenings sewing countless patches on the new jamboree uniforms, the big day is finally here!
This morning The Gimlet took Thing One to the airport, where he met up with his National Jamboree troop. Two members of our troop are attending the Jamboree.
The two LDS troops from our council will spend a week touring LDS historic sites as well as Gettysburg and Washington, DC before settling in at for nine days of fun at the jamboree. Thing One is looking forward to meeting up with his friends around the country from last year’s Philmont trek and NAYLE.
The Gimlet has very fond memories of his National Jamboree and dearly wishes he could go, too. Maybe when it’s Thing Two’s turn.
