How can your Cub Scouts connect with Scouts in 170 countries—without leaving home? Join us to learn all about Jamboree on the Air and Jamboree on the Internet (JOTA/JOTI)!
Held each year on the third full weekend of October, JOTA/JOTI is an international Scouting event that brings Scouts together through amateur radio and the internet. It’s an exciting opportunity for Cub Scouts to discover other cultures, learn how Scouting is different—and the same—around the world, and experience the global Scouting community firsthand.
Ruth Barnes Shaw joins us to share how JOTA/JOTI works and how your pack can get involved.
Whether you’re a longtime JOTA/JOTI participant or have never heard of it before, tune in to discover how you can open a whole world of Scouting to your Cub Scouts!
