Dear Scouting Friends,
The Jamboree Service Team (JST) is the name for the volunteer staff who will design, plan, and deliver the 2023 National Scout Jamboree for the Scout participants, their adult leaders, and our visitors. The 2023 Jamboree leadership as a whole, and our pillar in particular, are committed to welcoming the most diverse and youngest-average-age JST in the history of the BSA. That means that we welcome you and your Scouting friends to join our team!
Any registered BSA volunteer can apply to join the team and commit your talents to a most unique event in the history of Scouting. It is possible to volunteer on-site for the Jamboree for the first week, the second week, or for the entire Jamboree event. Those age 33 and under receive a JST fee discount. Additional details for those curious about the JST can be found at the link below.
The Administration Pillar needs many volunteers across a wide array of skills and interest areas. Our Administration service areas offer an excellent place for a first-time Jamboree volunteer to feel welcome and gain their first Jamboree experiences. We also need seasoned Jamboree staff veterans to help guide the way. The skills required in many of our volunteer service roles match those that you would find in professional office and organization settings. Extensive Scouting and BSA experience is not required, as our volunteer managers will train and guide their staffs to smooth and smart operations. We work extensively with information and processes that help us organize our event, its people, and the services necessary to keep everyone informed, safe, connected, and heading in the right direction.
In future posts to this page we will highlight some of the particular job roles that we have available to reveal more about the fun and impactful opportunities our volunteers can apply for. As an initial introduction, the broad categories of opportunities we have for volunteers include:
đģ Registration & Access

Sincerely,
Your friends in the Administration Pillar đ
