Willow Street Troop 58

08/04/2026

Know anyone who could benefit from an outdoor leadership program? Troop 58 is for all youth both boys and girls looking to build character, confidence, and leadership while exploring the outdoors, serving our community, and growing into tomorrows leaders. Come visit us TONIGHT 8/4/26 at National Night Out @ the West Lampeter Fairgrounds Park. The troop will be there serving free food to the community for the West Lampeter Police Department! We would be happy to talk more about the program or answer any questions you may have.

Every legend has an origin story. In the official 2026 National Jamboree “Elevate” logo, there is a compass point positioned above the “V.” During a national meeting two years ago, someone noticed something unexpected in that compass needle design.

“It looks like a gnome!”

Once the idea was spoken, it took on a life of its own.

From that single observation, Gnorm the Gnome was born. Designed from the compass point itself, Gnorm quite literally represents direction, leadership, and the spirit of exploration — core values of Scouting America and the National Jamboree.

The compass has always symbolized guidance and purpose. Turning that compass needle into a character gave the event something powerful:

A mascot that points Scouts toward adventure.
