For one day of the 2013 National Scout Jamboree, attendees will engage in a day of service in the area surrounding the Summit.
Here’s the deal with that:
First, it’s what Scouts and Scouters do. Pitching in and helping—it’s in your blood. It takes work, some sweat, and some muscle, but you’re prepared for the challenge.
Second, service projects bring us all together in a huge way. Ask anyone who’s been part of a really big, meaningful project. Or a really small, meaningful project.
The jamboree is going to be—no exaggeration—a life-changing experience. Service goes hand-in-hand with that.
’Nuff said.
Third, and last, service projects are a blast. They’re really, really fun. And that’s the other thing the jamboree is about.
Fun. Lots of it.
Seriously, if you’re not having fun on your day of service, you’re doing it wrong.
